[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am feeling a bit disillusioned this week.  We love our school, and are happy to stay with an inbounds DCPS.  I know all families are different, and make different choices, but watching families leave year-after-year is just really disheartening.  I know my kid is getting a great education, and I am confident in that part of my choice.  But watching the rotating door of friends/family/community is just... depressing.

Is this just the way DC schools are?  Or only EOTP DCPS?[/quote]

It is a lot of schools.  DC is just a transient type place.  But yes way worse EOTP.

My plan when I was there was to focus on addressing the very real and serious shortcomings of our school and loving it with eyes open.[/quote]

As a parent of a student at a JKLM school I can say it's not the way our school is. There are occasional kids leaving for private or because their family moves, and a few kids coming in every year especially through diplomatic families. But the overall student population is very consistent. I can imagine the shifts are very hard - my kid already gets upset over the handful of friends that have left. [/quote]
