[quote=Anonymous]Not sure why the word "paradox" appears in the title. It seemed obvious to me that increasing the caliber of public education would attract private schools families back to public schools. It seemed obvious to me when last year DC charter enrollment increased by 8% but DCPS enrollment barely budged. In fact, wasn't attracting private school families back part of the plan for improving public schools? If 70% of DC kids are low SES, but no school with more that 30% low SES performs well, don't we have to attract a large number of middle and high SES families back to drive the percentage from 70% down to 30% on average?[/quote]
