[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sidwell and NCS and St.Albans can draw from the pool of best kids in DC and around because they thrive on the inability of the city to give families a clear and predictable path for their kids public school options.

You all seem to think most people choose these elite private schools because of the state of the public school.  I don't think that is at all accurate.  If it were, you wouldn't get so many MoCo and NOVA students at the top privates.  Nor would you have so many rich families living in NWDC.  Most families who choose private school do so because they prefer private school.  [/quote]

This is somewhat true. My spouse is against sending the kids public. But I would have put up a bigger fight if it wasn't DCPS. I believe strongly in public education but the incompetence of DCPS central office makes me suspicious of it all. I do think [b]it is criminal that half of city has acceptable schools and the other half doesn't. It also disturbs me that the haves don't give a crap about the have nots.[/b] I want everyone to have a good public school option.[/quote]

This.  This is why Deal and Wilson are overcrowded.
