Reconstitute those schools. I thought at one point, if a school was designated as failing, everyone on staff had to resign and reapply for the job?

And what would you start with?

tabulating the surveys filled out, including the ones without the correct bubbles filled out on front page. Deconstruct educational campuses. Beef up discipline at middle and high school level with in-school suspensions and maybe more specialized centers in high need areas. Maybe the equivalent of a military academy like the one in forestville

That would be a lot of DCPS schools, few have met the goals set forth by the Dept. of Ed using DC CAS scores, some make "Safe Harbor."

well seems like a start has o be made there. As far as boundaries go, many people have mentioned that very few schools have too many in bound kids. The problem is not boundaries, it is screwed up schools elsewhere and inadequate measures to fix those schools. Also, I'm not sure more specialized schools need to be created if the specialized schools are still under-enrolled

That doesn't work
