[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It looks like MacArthur is a clear easy post-lottery add for any 9th grader who didn't match[/quote]

But why spend 2 hours round trip going all the way across town to a poorly performing title 1 school when you can just go to a similar one in your neighborhood that down the street or less then 10 minutes away?[/quote]

Wow...[/quote]

I mean… is the PP wrong? What is inherently better about MacArthur than the schools people are zoned for? The people trying to send their kids across town to MacA are the “racists” (scare quotes) not the poster merely pointing out that a school in ward 3 is not better just because it’s in ward 3.

Is this a serious question?

School, math 4+, English 4+
MacArthur, 11%, 40%
Eastern, 1%, 15%
Dunbar, 1%, 14%
Roosevelt, 0%, 12%

That’s why. [/quote]

Sorry but that yield it not enough to subject my kid to a 2 hour plus commute in addition to having to supplement just to stay in the city.

But hey, you do you.[/quote]

It was a good response to the question about why to choose it over your neighborhood school. If you'd move instead, that was not about you. [/quote]
