[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The majority of parents at our DCI feeder school have no plan of changing school.  I beleive - as with any new school- there will be some bumps but they will ease.

I am excited for our new junior/high school and do not see my family pulling out.

FYI - YuYing and Stokes are not the only schools.  There will also be graduates from DC Bilingual, LAMB and eventually Mundho Verde.[/quote]

You can't know what parents plans are.  We tell others that we're on board with DCI when asked.  This is to avoid offending anyone when we're really on the fence, looking at privates, the burbs, Washington Latin, Basis etc.

DCI is indeed far from our home on the Hill and the DCPC's aversion to testing in worries us.  Too many of the kids in our feeder struggle for us to feel committed.  We like the optimism in the air, but have our doubts for a very bright kid who also excels at sports.

The distance from the Hill to Walter Reed, through bad traffic, will not ease.  No, the traffic will only worsen.

[/quote] DCI might not be for you and that is OK.  For others-we are good.  We are not concerned about kids being able to test in beyond 6th grade.[/quote]
