[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The whole city should be outraged. It wouldn't occur to a lot of other places/cities that they need to fight and constantly lobby for safe, 50-90 % at grade level or higher. But in DC this is the case it is sad. But then we keep voting in that don't seem to do much about it. [/quote] In which city -- an urban area -- in America are 50-90% of public school student at grade level or high? I'll wait for you to name them. [b]You cannot fix student achievement with votes or even with funding education alone. You need to virtually eliminate poverty, unemployment, trauma, and crime. If DC's leaders were doing this AND our schools were filled with low-achieving students then you'd be on point. [/b] [/quote] This The only resolution is magnet/honors programs, but that won't go over too well in MS. [/quote]
