Yes they do, but some PTAs raise money to supplement.

You are the Fox News of DCUM. Repeat a falsehood often enough and people will start believing it.

Correct

Title I schools get higher per pupil allocation than non Title I schools.

The Uniform Per Student Funding Formula (UPSFF) set annually by OSSE establishes a BASELINE which is then supplemented by the DCPS Weighted Student Formula (WSF) that adjusts allocations for each school according to unique factors such as grade level, FARMS eligibility, levels of SpEd need, and English proficiency. Some schools them receive additional funding through Federal grants and programs like Title I.

Exactly. Net net, as previous PP said, "Title I schools get higher per pupil allocation than non Title I schools."

We'll stated 10:38. Schools are built on community. It is far more beneficial to stay near home. This cross town commuting is ridiculous - how else can people be vested in their chosen neighborhood. AND if WOTP gets less resources from DCPS, guess what they will fund via PTA. They clearly have the resources. Sure diversity would be great but get real and think of day in and day out logistics
