[quote=Anonymous]A lot of kids really are improving. If somebody wants to say it's just a couple of high performers who aren't part of the longtime community, they'd have to pull that out of data they don't have. The truth is that many of DC's African-American families have kids that aren't doing a lot better than they were. But some definitely are. In terms of remedial education, I can understand at least some of this. Remember the Banneker grad thread - the young (man?) who never ever had to work hard until he got to Banneker? Some of that happens at college entrance as well, especially if you are part of a small on-grade cohort, I think.[/quote]
