[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hope the school doesn't just "pass" these kids. I'd rather do things the old way like sending kids to Catholic, UDC or Howard for college courses; at least there wouldn't be any bias there.[/quote] You do know there are smart kids in ward 7 and 8 that can do this and not just be passed. Did you comment this because of where the school will be located?[/quote] It is not just for "smart kids". Early college is for very, very smart kids who are also mature enough for the coursework. How many 8th graders scoring a 5 in both ELA and Math even exist in DCPS? Most of those kids are not academically or developmentally ready for early college. And the number who would find a school EOTR logistically manageable is even smaller. DCPS should focus on getting its existing schoolss to a state of adequate functioning.[/quote]
