Then the answer is simple! Move SWW there (leveraging Howard) and use SWW as a neighborhood school.  It's cost effective, no busing is needed, it provides the most flexibility for future boundary issues, it has the most potential for growth/success, it provides the least disruption/transportation problems, and it likely (because of the neighborhood alone) creates another desirable HS.  Between it and Wilson there would be more cumulative OOB spots.

It doesn't solve the upper EOTP problem, which desperately needs a solution if we want that part of the city to continue to thrive but it'd be a win for everybody.

Wilson might start losing some baseball games though...[/quote]

SWW won’t work as a neighborhood school. No outdoor spsce, no gym and SWW is partnered with GWU. You cant just switch it to another college FFS.

Move your elementary kids to Banneker. [/quote]

Fine with me.  Based on geography and population growth alone two extra HS are needed, one on 16th St and one in southwest NW.[/quote]
