[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]+1. Elementary school students are not exactly in the best position to know what’s in their best interest in the long run. Elementary school seems like such a big deal while you’re in it and once you’re at the next phase, that phase will also feel like the most important. It’s short-sighted to prioritize completing 5th grade at an elementary school when the middle school options in DC are what they are. [/quote] I guess I don't believe in moving a kid to an unknown if they are learning and thriving and happy where they are. It feels like a fear-based decision. I also would be happy to get to any number of DCPS middles, beyond Hardy and Deal, and am willing to roll the dice for those. [/quote]
