[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When DCPS adequately funds its middle schools and finds a way of educating children who have experienced trauma, then things will improve. Not before. That being said, I do think Eastern may be next to gentrify, Stuart-Hobson being well underway.[/quote] Middle schools have plenty of money. You are right about educating children who have experienced or live in trauma. I'm not sure anyone, anywhere has figured that out though. [/quote] It is not enough money for enough staff to help with the trauma and the remediation. Kids are entering 6th grade several years below grade level, and they need a well-staffed school and a quality afterschool and summer program to catch up. That is what there is no funding for.[/quote]
