I have a rising 4th grader at BM. its been great (and BM wasnt' our first choice) Iam not solc on Macfarland middle at all. But for sure, BM is retaining a lot of UMC families through 4th now.  I just had a conversation recently about quite a few UMC families all willing to give MacFarland a try for 6th grade at least.[/quote]

I'm first to admit I don't know a lot about McFarland but everytime I drive by I think about what a beaut school it is, it seems though the only tolerable middle school is Deal (and people also seem to trash that a lot). I have never read much if anything about McFarland or Roosevelt or basically any other public school besides the elementary choices, charters, deal and Wilson. [/quote]

I suggest you look up the stats about academic proficiency on the DC school report, and then you will understand why.  Granted it’s old data from 2019 before the pandemic.

Hopefully more data will come out the next school year.  It’s going to be even worst though, because we already know that kids in DC suffered huge learning losses with the extended closures, with the largest lost by far in the lower performing groups.[/quote]
