[quote=Anonymous]I don't see this happening mainly because the original Latin uses a large cohort of high SES students as a tool to help low SES students rise with the tide academically. That's their model. They can't fulfill their mission without a test-in option AND only poor minority kids in the program. They're not KIPP, a national franchise with a tradition of extended day, Saturday school, abundant use of military type chants and drills, ample private funding etc. Latin really needs UMC kids of various races to make the program work. Moreover, Capitol Hill parents, many of them longtime neighborhood residents who know how to push political levels, have come to rely on Latin as their middle school. They'll give Ward 6 major headaches if Latin winds up in Ward 8. Ward 7 they can live with, not Ward 8. [/quote]
