[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You could do that today.  Eaton and Hearst in Ward 3 still have very large OOB enrollments.  DCPS could say, “No - stop! We are not going to lose these schools, not going to let them flip to IB.  They will never become like Janney. They must remain jewels accessible on the basis of equality and inclusion to the entire community  of DC!”[/quote]

Eaton & Hearst will always have large OOB enrollments due to the demographics of their neighborhood.  The older families there are menopausal and not sending kids to ES or they're wealthy enough to have bought in C.P. and still afford private.  It's not like Janney where they blew it all on an ugly house in the middle of upper Caucasia.  They're not there for the public schools.[/quote]

I'm sorry your income isn't high enough to get you the full range of excellent, guaranteed options.   Hang in there! [/quote].

Probably make more than you and your household anyway and might have more discretionary income because it’s not all going to a mortgage.  Some houses have tripled in cost but aren’t very big so there's bItterness in some that trickles to the blog. Lots of insecurity and inner rage on this blog.  Too much focus on image, money, race, and status.  Would be nice to focus on helping all children to do well.  Helping all children helps keep some stay out of a future in jail or on public assistance, but then we see some rich crooks, too. Make all schools excellent.[/quote]
