[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ellington is horribly under utilized. They should be made to take students until they're at capacity. DC parents paid for it DC students should be able to use it. [/quote] No, if you don't have talent or passion no need for them to accept you! =_= [/quote] They should blind audition kids in the music and fine arts program before kids get to the interview stage. This approach has been shown to benefit females who are often discriminated against in orchestras. They should also offer a stream where the student takes one arts focus rather then two and then the other time they do advanced math or something else academic. This will attract a lot of interest from families who do not want the double arts focus but like the idea of a strong arts program that does not sacrifice academics. And with this approach the school can make better use of the space that they have, much of which sits empty for half the day. [/quote]
