[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interesting article but a little lacking. They assume that it’s only white families who seek out schools with fewer title 1 kids. Simply not true. UMC black and Latino families also seek out those same school. UMC lack families are the least likely to consider a DCPS school at all and most fled to the suburbs and still choose that over DCPS Or charters. I don’t think it’s a crime for a parent to want to avoid many of the issues that come with a high poverty student population. I don’t think that makes them a bad parent just shows they are informed about the realities and correlation and causation Between poverty, low test scores and behavioral problems.[/quote] Is this anecdotal? [/quote] Ask AA UMC families tomweigh jn. They are the first to bail on DC schools. And move to suburbs. The gentrificationnis from white families willing to take a chance on a title 1 school.[/quote]
