[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Really interesting, thanks for sharing. This is a shocking stat: "Since 2008, DCPS has [u]yearly[/u] enrolled 500 to 1,000 additional Hispanic/Latino and White students, while enrolling 600 fewer Black or African American students on average." Also, it's bizarre that nearly 5% of DCPS students come from "unknown Ward." Even with divorced homes, the kids would be assigned to a Ward of a parent or relative. It looks like DCPS is seriously considering adding At-Risk preference to the lottery. That said, with OOB seats basically disappearing at all desirable schools within the next 2-4 years, I'm not sure the preference will help all that much. [/quote] The stat makes perfect sense - 2008 recession. Law firms imploded. People who thought they could afford private decided to "try out DCPS" to see if _[insert school name] ____ works for their kid.[/quote]
