[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Like others have said before, I would focus on two areas. The string of neighborhoods just east of the Park and on Capitol Hill. [/quote] This is a key point. Starting a magnet school in Ward 8 just won't work, because it's too difficult to get to, and, rightly or wrongly, many nid/high SES families will be afraid to go there. But schools on the Hill, and in Columbia Heights, Petworth, 16th St. Heights, etc. are accessible to Wards 1 and 4 families, (plus families WotP), and ar not perceived to be as dangerous. [/quote] I see two prime pieces of real estate, I don't know what others can think of: the Shaw Middle School building and the McFarland building. If someone can propose real winners for those sites, you've got something.[/quote]
