[quote=Anonymous]You know, I have kids and still live in Col Hts.  My kids have moved around a bit in the endless search for the "perfect" school, but now we feel settled in a good ES.  I guess the message is, no one knows how schools will turn out until their kids are there, and my kids have survived and thrived in their various school environments.  They love walking to Acre 121 and Lou's, they love playing in the myriad playgrounds, they love having the zoo practically next door, and they love walking to their friends' houses in Adams Morgan, Col. Hts, and Mount Pleasant.  I love that we live close to the Green Line so we can commute quickly to downtown movie theaters and the mall and that my commute is 30 minutes door to door.

Living in Col. Hts may mean taking more than one trip through the lottery, but it didn't hurt my kids to experience different schools, and they have made lots of friends on the way.  Hopefully some day folks will invest in Tubman if the new principal manages to sustain the academic growth of the past principal.  In the meantime, we are happy with the school our children are in.

Can I guarantee that we'll stay here our whole lives or our kids whole lives?  Don't be daft; this is DC, and by definition transient!  [/quote]
