[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No one has been claiming that Brent families are recently attending Jefferson in large numbers.  They have instead been claiming that some families at the other three Jefferson elementary school feeders are increasingly open to Jefferson.[/quote]

This just isn't true. Folks absolutely have claimed that or tried to equate the Maury/EH & Brent/Jefferson numbers. This puts lie to that. And there doesn’t seem to be any evidence that Tyler kids are flocking there either. Did anyone doubt AB and VN kids were heading there? One of the oft discussed knocks on Jefferson is that it’s hard to get buy in from the Hill when it’s far away and awkwardly located. Obviously that doesn’t apply to AB or VN.

Also did Jefferson really get zero kids into Walls last year??[/quote]

There hasn’t been significant movement from Brent to Jefferson for the last 3-4 years. There hasn’t really been much discussion of it on DCUM either. I follow it closely. [b]I think the pandemic derailed things a bit. [/b]At least it did for our family. We were pretty seriously considering Jefferson for our oldest, but we left DCPS during the pandemic and haven’t gone back. Distance learning was a misery, and there seemed to be some extreme post-pandemic behavioral issues.[/quote]

The problem with this theory is that it doesn't seem to have derailed EH and SH feeders. Why would the impact be localized to Brent? [/quote]
