[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow PP. Not a Maury parent, but your attitude is alarming. I do live in th neighborhood and know of some committed parents who are sending their children to Eliot-Hine. It takes people like that to change a school, and I'm impressed at their tenacity.

As far as your comment about "getting the popcorn", it is neither cute nor original. [/quote]

Committed parents or parents without decent options?  Eliot-Hine's PARCC scores were the worst on this side of the river, in the single digits for proficiency.  Total disaster.  [/quote]

+1.  A few parents drawing on their reserves of tenacity is not a remedy and will not change a school.  Then there's Eastern.  What's the point?[/quote]

I never understand posts like this.  [b]What do you want to see happen?[/b]  Is it for everyone to move WOTP/the burbs or pray for a handful of charter spots?  [/quote]

Easy.  Get Bowser, the city council and DCPS to commit to renovate E-H from top to bottom within two years, and allow Brent to feed in.  Then create a full honors classes there, not just grade level classes branded as honors class, as at Stuart Hobson.  Then have E-H teach all the tough subjects, and offer all the enrichment, Deal does, e.g. Arabic, Mandarin and 7th grade algebra, along with Deal-quality extra curriculars.  Done.  [/quote]
