[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just like shipping WOTP kids to a half-empty school EOTP is a non-starter, so is excluding Bancroft (majority Hispanic) and Shepherd (majority AA) from their historic feeder pattern.   One solution from another thread was to pull Ward 4 schools -- Lafayette and Shepherd -- into another middle school together as a compromise where families both east and west of the park feel the "pain" of a new feeder system.    A solution like that where no "side" wins is the only thing that's politically viable.  The people who bitch about EOTP hipsters or middle-class black families using YOUR schools are sadly bitter and 
obviously new to how DC works.[/quote]

Hahaha, of course.  The agenda has been revealed.  This is as absurd as the idea floated by Much parents that since Lafyette had trailers in place they should just move Murch there rather than sully the neighborhood during construction.

Nevertheless, I must obligatorily point out that Lafayette has been part of Deal/Wilson for over 50 years, it's physical location is far closer to those schools than any other option, the road and transportation networks are aligned in that direction, and it's only a part of ward 4 for political gerrymandering reasons.[/quote]
