[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Stuart Hobson has as much potential as Hardy. Neck and neck for second DCPS MS behind Deal[/quote] Not the way SH runs now. Far too many Hill parents are fleeing to Latin, and now Basis, for this to be case. There isn't nearly enough academic tracking, or fine teaching, at SH to draw in most IB families so a small minority attend. E.g. SH only started teaching 8th grade algebra last school year. Algebra is a 7th grade subject at Deal and in the suburban TAG programs. Although the Hill's population is increasingly upper-middle-class, SH has struggled mightily to attract such families since the Cluster was created. Also, it's not a very big building, meaning that DCPS won't even let Brent feed into it, cutting out some of the strongest local students coming out of 5th. [/quote]
