[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I never realized how close Garrison elementary in Seaton elementary are to one another. Do they both fill up with in boundary kids for the most part? [/quote] Seaton to Garrison is about the same as Seaton to Thomson and Seaton to Cleveland. All about a half mile or so. Hence why the location across the street made sense for a middle school from a location POV. Lots of families in the area for elementary, but lowest (the lowest?) DCPS in bounds middle school rate. [/quote] There are a lot of in boundary kids, or kids who live nearby and are just over the boundary line. In 2014 DCPS re-drew the map and some kids' addresses are no longer in boundary but they were earlier. IMO it's a good thing to offer out of boundary seats at schools that are very convenient to the metro and bus. It can be hard to get all the way from work to home by 6 pm, having a school closer to work is appealing to many people.[/quote]
