[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're in bounds for Deal and I really like the idea of 6th grade at Hardy and 7/8 at Deal. It could create two schools with a high quality, uniform middle school program. Heck, let's be really hopeful and use some of those increased shared resources to add a gifted program. Problem is, I don't trust DCPS to not muck up Deal in the process. [b]And I certainly doubt anyone will have political will to deal with the OOB issue. (Combining the schools would almost certainly greatly increase IB enrollment from the Hardy feeders, which would require kicking out most OOB kids in order to control size.)[/b] [/quote] True dat. No one downtown wants to reduce OOB slots in WOTP schools even as IB enrollments climb. It's easier just to throw trailers at the problem, and peddle platitudes like "Alice Deal for all."[/quote]
