[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]White non-hispanics at Latin appear to get a lower share of PARCC 4s than the DC average. Where are the high scorers going to middle school?

And how are the suspension rate numbers read? Is an 8 percent suspension rate saying that 8 percent of all students are suspended? Suspensions look better than DC average, but I'm not sure I'm reading this right.

Achievement gap is hard to crack in general, and I would guess it's even harder for a middle school taking kids from all over. Is anyone doing well here?[/quote]

Yes, 8% is the number of students who have been suspended at least once during the year.

All of the charter equity reports are posted at the link below.  It is kind of hard to compare since some are combined Pk-8, some at 5-12, etc.

The achievement gap is really hard to crack -- you see it in DCPS too, even at schools with great reputations. However, charters were created and given broad latitude to try new ways to improve outcomes for underserved kids. If Latin isn't do that as well or better than anyone else ...
