[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Yes, some of us who live in Ward 3 and realize how lucky we are to be able to live somewhere where our kids can walk to excellent schools also believe the city should make it easier for more people to do this. I don't work for development interests; if it were up to me, the city would be building public housing in Ward 3, not merely loosening zoning regulations to make it easier to build more densely. I am quite certain that adding some kids to the excellent schools here — even (gasp!) poor kids — will not "sacrifice" them on any altar. [/quote] If this poster lived in DC they would know that Ward 3 schools do not cater exclusively to Ward 3 kids. Even a DC private school parent know how the DC school zoning and lottery system works and certainly knows that Wilson HS draws from across the city. But alas, they seem to want to make a point by invoking wokeness for 'poor' kid. So go ahead, publicly support your densification projects. I will see you at the meetings and look forward to this exchange IRL.[/quote] Most of the Ward 3 elementary schools are virtually impossible to get into from out of bounds, but go on.[/quote]
