Eaton? Seriously? If she wants to go DCPS, she can't do better than Mann. And if she's looking for a Deal feeder school, then she should choose Janney, Lafayette, or Murch. Eaton has too many OOB students, and is destined to get switched to Hardy anyway. Deal is overcrowded and Eaton is closer to Hardy. No advantage to Eaton (besides, all the Cleveland Park families go private anyway).


You must be white. Haven't checked lately but Eaton use to do the best job at educating AAs; better than Murch, Janney, Lafayette or Mann.

I've had friends who moved their kids out of Annunciation b/c it was so freaking easy, their kid was bored to tears.
