DCI is on pace to become the highest scoring public or charter school in the city- I said on pace, it probably won’t pass BASIS but Walls is in decline- and offering APs reflects the preferences of the high performing parents who seek it out. I think there’s a sizable group of people who are ambivalent about the immersion but view it as the only chance for real differentiated learning in DC.

Based on what actual data?

They won’t give us yoy AP scores but they do give us SAT and walls has declined. Once the test free cohorts really kick in it’ll get much worse. Only question is if DCI can pass JR.

I have a kid at DCI. SAT scores at Walls remain light years ahead and DCI will never catch it. But, yea, I doubt there's much daylight between JR and DCI.

Here is the reality. Walks is a selective school and DCI isn’t. You cannot compare the 2 since not apples to apples.

BUT if you look at the average SAT scores of the higher performing kids who pursue the IB diploma, I can bet you their scores are just as good, if not better than Wals since the SAT difference between the two schools is only about 150 points or so

NP and DCI posters are always comparing the school to Walls. And then on any data point where Walls is better thry bring up that it is a selective school. So stop comparing them, and people won’t keep mentioning the SAT scores.

I’m the PP above and did not do any comparison. I’m only refuting the fact mentioned above that Walls SAT scores are “light years” ahead which is not factually true.

On the school report card, 83.6 percent of Walls kids met the SAT benchmark, 33.3% of DCI kids did. For many who care about *their* kid, you can look at the differences in demographics -- all of our kids are more than their demographics but it's a helpful start for comparison. 61.5% of Black kids at Walls met the benchmark; 22.8% at DCI. For White, it's 93.3% at Walls and 63.9 at DCI.

Selective schools generally have higher performance on standardized tests across subgroups. For DCI, it's hard to say what the influence is of students with disabilities is on the overall score of different race/ethnic groups. DCI is nearly 20% students with disabilities, whereas Walls is 1%.

Having experienced the DCI community, it's a great school. Focusing on this one test to assess the school doesn't tell the whole story of the school.

Dci has to take everyone. Basis has to take everyone. Jr Wilson gets to have the wealthiest neighborhood in the city. walls has the benefit of an application school- only some kids will apply. This isn’t a good comparison.

Except that it's the DCI boosters who insist DCI is *better* and you should send your kid to DCI if they get into both. That's what's leading to the comparison. It's not Walls boosters.

Back to the original. discussion….

Offering more AP courses to everyone is a good thing.

Offering more rigorous AP courses earlier to kids who can do the work and handle the rigor is also a good thing.

There is not a single post on this entire thread where anyone from DCI even remotely suggests that. There's one poster whose biggest beef appears to be the alleged decline with Walls' SAT scores, but who gives a shit about that.

Our kid is at DCI and applied to Walls. We're not idiots and we recognize that by any objective measure Walls is the best public school in the city. Our kid didn't even get an interview despite having strong numbers and (we think) references. We were disappointed but not surprised, and we've moved on. We're grateful we have DCI. We consider it to be on par with JR and would have happily sent our kid there if we were in zone. Most kids don't need "the best." Good is good enough.

By any objective measure walls is definitely not the best public school in the city. It used to be. But now they don’t even use objective criteria like the CAPE for admission. You’re better off gaming the system at a mediocre dcps, taking the easiest courses to get an interview. And the courses offered are mediocre. Just a few AP classes, nothing exceptional at all. You’re better off trying for a good charter like basis or dci or even Latin to stand out. Honestly we should all move to Maryland.

I mean... by any objective measure Walls is the best public school in the city. Here is the post that people are claiming doesn't exist. The one saying you should send your kid to DCI over Walls. It exists. It's silly.

No school is best but some schools are better in certain areas.

Do you seriously think Walls is objectively better in languages, sports, or STEM if that is what is important to kids who have the option of both schools?

No, I don’t read this as a DCI parent at all. Tgey are not saying go to DCI over Walls but a few of the higher performing charters.

But they are correct that it’s easy to game the system and get weak kids into Walls from poorly performing DCPS schools which further weaken the cohort.

I’m not a big fan of any booster. Just do what’s best for your kid.

I wouldn’t send my kid to walls because they just don’t have the sports and courses my kid wants. There is nothing silly about it. If you want to go to the best school- Maryland? Private?

Mediocre course offerings, extra curricular activities, and too many weak students coming unprepared from bad middle schools. I don’t know why you insist it’s the best. Maybe for your kid?

Yea, well, they're kicking every other school's a$$ on college admissions, including DCI, so they must be doing something right.

Are we talking about the same high-performing DCI with only 20% of the HS class getting 4+ on 2024-25 Math CAPE as per the DCI annual report? J-R with 43% OOB and 26% at-risk has 36% 4+.

Sigh……. this has been discussed already that CAPE math is not good measure when a school is offering very advanced math and kids are not taking it.

You need to look at SAT scores and AP scores.

They totally need to bring back objective testing AND look at the actual courses that kids are taking.

Who has heard of a selective school with no testing?? it’s all subjective and BS and grade inflation is so rampant in DCPS.

What Walls “does right” is aggregate kids who would do well anywhere, and exclude kids who would struggle anywhere. It’s not clear that Walls itself adds any value over a school like DCI or JR (though obviously some kids like it, which is nice for them).

When Walls passes over a high performing kid, which they do fairly often these days, it’s Walls’s loss. The kid’s test scores and potential remain sky-high.

What a load of BS - what reputable officially IB high schools offer AP classes? Name some or you're just making this up.
