[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mann and Janney are [b]head and shoulders above the rest in terms of academic quality, teachers,[/b] student body performance, facilities (once Mann reno finished).  That said, I would give the nod to Janney because it feeds to Deal MS, the best general middle school in DC.  Mann, despite its high quality, feeds to Hardy MS, which is considered much lower quality than Deal.  (In fact, the vast majority of families who live in the Hardy boundary area avoid it; the school population largely comes from eastern areas of DC, who find it a better option than their "home" middle schools.)[/quote]

There is absolutely no way to know this. ^^^.

It's not quantified in a way that is put in a spreadsheet and made available to the public.

Nice try though. [/quote]

As a Mann parent, since most kids end up in private anyway, kids start peeling off in 4th for STA/NCS.  There is only one 5th grade class, and then the community totally splits up forever.  So the intellectual rigor goes down the higher the grade....

When we moved here, and even 5 years ago under Kim, Deal automatically let in any Mann kid who wanted to come, they had the room and actively recruited us.  So that has been the sea shift for parents who want to stay in the public/charter system.[/quote]
