[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The other school that should feed to Hardy is Ross.[/quote]

Ross should really feed Francis-Stevens, since most of Dupont is already in-boundary for that school.  At 60 kids per grade for MS that would cover most of the kids of that age in Foggy Bottom / Dupont / West End.

Of course there's still a high school problem, since FS feeds to Cardozo for HS.[/quote]

Francis-Stevens should become the DC-wide, test-in middle school that everyone except DCPS knows should be happening.[/quote]

Nope.

The complication with your suggestion, is that it would further concentrate the higher quality middle schools on the western end of the city.  Politically, demographically, geographically, it isn't filling a void.  In fact, it's creating another superfluous institution.

When and if DCPS is serious about a competitive, test-in, magnet MS, it belongs east of the river.  And, strategically located (metro, bus, streetcar) for it to be attractive for wards 6 & 5.[/quote]
