[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would say they're getting higher SES. Yes, most high SES/educated families are white in DC, but not all. For example, our IB is slightly less AA over the years, but still majority minority by far. Test scores are rising, but they don't completely track with race. The school's at-risk % is dropping, and at the same time the number of white students has inched up, but no dramatic increase. I think higher SES IB and OOB families [b]of any race (mostly black and white)[/b] are attending the school, which translates to higher test scores.[/quote] Whoops, meant to add the bolded.[/quote]
