[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]New schools won't help Ward 5. New parents might. THe reason why schools succeed isn't due to the new shiny buildings it's due to parental involvement (See: Eastern High). As long as the current demographics exist Ward 5 schools will remain at the bottom. Sad but true.[/quote] You do know that it has only been a few years that Deal has been majority IB. For years, the majority of the students who attended Deal were OOB. Unfortunately it was the best the city had to offer and it wasn't that great. Parents IB sent their children to private or moved to Bethesda. The changing of Deal's commitment to academics, beautiful new facility, state of the art equipment and crash of the stock market caused IB parents to take a look at Deal. If DCPS had a commitment to education in Ward 5, provided a new state of the aRt facility with all the bells and whistles, languages, science, and advance math to Ward 5, the children would attend. PP who posted about the demographics is ignorant as to the demographics of Ward 5. Therefore, there is no need to comment further on the ignorance. [/quote]
