[quote=Anonymous]I wonder if people would agree with me or want to discuss this point - I could break it onto a new thread - is whether the upper class/ish people who are new to Wards 1, 4, 5, and 6 (though it’s insulting, let’s call them gentrifiers for clarity) - are going to respond to the push/pull factors within DCPS in the same way Ward 3 would. Just for example, I read the above about people shying away from Hardy, even what some would call the “bad old Hardy,” whatever that was, and think people in Ward 1 with elementary kids wouldn’t shun a Hardy. They’d flock to it. And there are charters rather than privates as options here, though with their own limited access issues and weird locations eg up in Ward 4 above Military Road. And people over here are used to living and dying by lottery and figuring it out, not crying and moving to Potomac or whatever.  Just thinking - wondering if anyone shares that sentiment that basically the old UMC Ward 3 and new EOTP gentrifiers don’t think the same ways about schools. [/quote]
