[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My guess is that the remaining OOB kids are all in the upper grades, and that the lower grades are at capacity with all IB kids.[/quote]

That wouldn't explain 10% of the school population as being OOB.  Families tend to stretch to move into AU Park for Janney and are unlikely to sell and move elsewhere in DC while their kids are still in elementary school.  Rentals could explain some of the moving but it tends to be a SF homeowner area.  Hate to quote Mr. Trump, but "there's something going on here."

What's going on has already been pointed out by numerous posters: the old principal and apparently the new principal let [b]families who move very briefly into the neighborhood (usually while their permanent larger home elsewhere in the city, with lower performing schools, is being renovated) stay after they've moved out.[/b]  Or were they were in the neighborhood permanently and then moved to a bigger house elsewhere and then stayed in janney.  You'd be surprised how much this impacts the numbers. [/quote]

If this is true, it clearly needs to stop.[/quote]
