[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Ward 3 is under served by charters crowded in its decent traditional public schools. Latin has a strong contingent but is on the other side of the park and moving north across the park from Chevy Chase DC. That is Ward 4.[/quote] I know, that's my point. Let's everyone stop saying that "Wards 1-3 are well-served by charters already blah blah blah ... they have all the charters blah blah..." There aren't any over here in Ward 3. The fact that a handful of elementary kids make the drive to YY and a couple dozen go to Latin -- schools in other Wards -- doesn't change facts.[/quote] This. A few adventurous/ambitious Ward 3 families travel to Latin and Yu Ying, because they have high scholastic ambitions. Otherwise, there's no need to break out of the bubble. DCPS isn't a trainwreck in Ward 3, and there are no charters - nobody can afford the rent.[/quote]
