[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The key to increasing enrollment at Brookland Middle School is to make the feeder schools (Noyes, Bunker Hill, Burroughs) schools that neighborhood parents are willing to send their kids to. [b]Right now, that's not the case.[/b] Once parents are comfortable with the elementary schools, there's a chance of luring them to BMS. Right now so many kids in the neighborhood are in charters that have a middle school or are OOB in other DCPS schools that it's no surprise that they can't get any traction.[/quote] Some neighborhood parents aren't willing to send ther kids to these ES, but many are. The IB % are actually pretty high. Noyes is 66% IB Bunker Hill is 63% IB Burroughs is 44% IB Brookland MS is 63% IB It's a very stratified neighborhood, and that makes DCPS' job harder. But they are serving a lot of Brookland kids.[/quote]
