Actually I don't have kids at any of the schools I listed. [b]Maury is a cap hill school, and should feed to SH, the cap hill middle school. SH has abysmal test scores and many of the more affluent cap hill residents avoid it. If Brent and Maury would feed to SH, then SH would improve and lots of DC kids would benefit (not just white kids)[/b]. Here's an opportunity to improve a middle school, but DC won't take it. SH wouldn't become a segregated school full of only white kids. It's ridiculous to suggest that.

Unfortunately your responses are exactly what I'm talking about. It's the attitude that white and/or wealthy kids might benefit too so let's not do it, even if it would also benefit kids of other races and SES. So go ahead and keep telling people it's racist to demand high performing schools, but don't you dare say a word when DCPS and DCPCS continue to fail to deliver high performing schools. You're a big part of the problem.[/quote]

Again - explain why Maury should attend SH over Tyler, Miner and Payne, all of which are closer to Stuart Hobson? Why not just sent Maury to Deal and kick Shepherd out? [/quote]

[/quote]So now at least one Maury booster full of themselves enough to think they get rights over every other school?  So you think you're Brent community now  :roll:

SH is doing just fine without you.[/quote]

Yes. Plus, the Cluster, Ludlow-Taylor and JO Wilson (which feed currently) are closer than all of those listed above, to SH.[/quote]
