[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh the irony. The reason that Wilson is a beacon in the otherwise problematic landscape of DCPS attendance by-right high schools is *precisely because* its address is surrounded by upper NW. You’re welcome, EOTP PP who carefully picked a residence in a so-much-more-authentic and diverse neighborhood that lacks the “bullshit” of upper NW — but is still inbounds for Deal/Wilson. It’s the large critical mass of our upper NW kids, raised on a diet of bullshit and high expectations, that makes Wilson Wilson and not Cardozo. Test my thesis: next year your block in Mt Plesant / Sheperd Park / wherever you commute to Hardy from is zoned out of Wilson to any equally modern DCPS high school with an equally competent faculty. Is this OK by you? [/quote] Why do you presume to know where the "upper NW bullshit" poster lives? They never said where they live. Also, as someone who lives in one of the neighborhoods above that you've misspelled, we sometimes use the term upper NW for ourselves; I sometimes say "EOTP upper NW." To refer to the neighborhoods right on the other side of Rock Creek Park, we typically use the term WOTP. So my guess is that the PP's child lotteried into a Deal feeder from OOB.[/quote]
