[quote=Anonymous]Let's hope so, I'm skeptical though. Without serious academic magnets programs, as in the burbs, there isn't a DC public high school that gets many kids to Ivies. Only a handful make the grade from Banneker, Walls, Wilson. Perhaps we can hope that a handful soon will from Latin. Blair in Mo. Co. got 152 into Ivies this spring. No wonder the parents of the most advanced kids still vote with their feet in droves - DC never seems to be in a rush to serve such students. We're looking at the Takoma Park math magnet for 6th, concerned that Basis is taking too many kids who aren't math gifted and never will be. You could give my kid all the great drawing, music and dance lessons in the world and she'd still be hopeless at art, and tone deaf. [/quote]
