There was an AMAZING opinion piece in WaPo a while back that basically said "Ignore the doomsayers about public schools. My two kids got a world class education at Blair SMACS". |
Yes there was a thread |
No, there was not a thread discussing it. It was a poster asking why BCC was not in the list, initially. It was barely a 2 pages thread. |
In other words, yes there was a thread. If that thread didn't meet your needs, go ahead and start one of your own. |
Yes, the least diverse schools are doing great! |
Russian troll farm... |
MCPS will fix that with the diversity bus. |
Kennedy, is pretty UNDIVERSE. It's 60+% Hispanic, 30% black and a smattering of Asian and white. You can peek at the school profile and see the scores to that it's not doing great. You probably mean "majority-white/Asian" schools are doing great, which is true, somewhat. At least when it comes to test scores, graduation rate, etc. |
The schools that serve higher poverty areas are declining! Imagine that. |
No certain areas are declining, the schools mirror that. |
Yes it corresponds with poverty and changes in demographics. |
| Six pages and no one will identify the 13 schools |
If you have time, you can sort through the report cards and figure it out, then post it here for discussion. That’s basically what you’re asking somebody else to do. |
Lol. Everyone knows that the ultimate in diversity would include NO white people. So Kennedy is almost there. |
Wrong, optimal diversity should reflect the county's demographics. If a school, contains just one or two groups it isn't great. |
