North Cleveland Park is a real place. Check the zoning maps.

Well, they will be joining the Hearst kids at Deal and Wilson.

Hearst has come up a lot academically, but I still think that many Janney parents have an aversion to it. The JKLM distinction still resonates.

This link has a map, for anyone that is interested in facts. The historic district in this map includes many, many apartment buildings.
This is a stupid argument and it is still not clear what "point" the prior poster is actually trying to make.

NP. There are two cleveland parks, and only one of them is consistently producing Hearst students. One CP is the historic district, full of owner-occupied single family homes with a mean price of $2.5 million:
https://www.redfin.com/DC/Washington/3030-Macomb-St-NW-20008/home/10178486
This CP does indeed skew older, maybe even ... menopausal. This isn't where the surfeit of preK kids are coming from.
The other cleveland park is lots of condos, 1980s town homes, big rental building along Wisc and Conn. aves. Comparatively speaking, these are the people who are fired up about sending their kids to the local DC public school.
Actually, the Hearst district (or most of it) is not really Cleveland Park. Cleveland Park's elementary school is Eaton. A couple of blocks of Cleveland Park are in the Hearst district. Cleveland Park's northern boundary is Rodman St or Springland Lane to the north, according to the maps for the historic district and the citizens association. Hearst's district is largely greater Van Ness or the contrivance the realtors call "North Cleveland Park."
However, the PP is correct that the Eaton district also includes apartments and condos, although there are plenty of kids who live in the historic district who attend public school as well.
This is exactly the point.

And we've got the "Hearst is the solution" person. It may help some, but early grades are already mostly IB.
I see what appear to be parents picking their kids up from the after school program at Hearst. After the recent series on residency fraud, it's hard to turn a blind eye to it.
