There’s no clear information of curriculum with class offerings, extracurriculars, etc….

Unless DCPS can get their act together to be transparent about leadership, curriculum, sports, extracurriculars, etc… I don’t think many families are going to take the risk with their kids being the 1st of a brand new high school.

Most parents at our feeder elementary are thrilled about it. Not sure who you’re speaking to!

Is there a mass exodus from DCPS of in boundary upper elem and MS kids bc of MacArthur? Are most parents that can affording going to private schools or is it less dire than I’ve heard?
