[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So basically they are solving the 'by right' dc high school challenge by building a high ses school and having some opportunity for low ses to attend, and by default doing that at Wilson too. Its solving the wrong problems. And it's terrible to put a high school in such an inaccessible location. What happened to equity? This is akin to people sleeping out to get a spot at a charter school. You shouldn't be allowed to make something open for all and then build in barriers to make it not open for all. [/quote] DCPS has a problem that in large parts of the city they can't make neighborhood schools that people want to go to. They don't know how to solve that problem. So their options are to either keep trying to solve the problem they don't know how to solve, or to work on the problem they do know how to solve, which is making schools in parts of the city that people do want to go to. They seem to vacillate between those two approaches. [/quote]
