[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Academics are fantastic. Teachers are engaged and committed. And the small class sizes are advantage to students. If you don’t want to attend then don’t. There’s a private school somewhere happy to take your money and your bigotry. [/quote]

Right, bigotry.  10% of the students working at grade level in math, and none above, and the problem is racism on the part of anybody who politely points this out.

I don't get why DCPS bothered to create yet another weak high school option, in Upper NW no less, where demographics could easily have saved the day.[/quote]

Demographics? LOL

22% of Macarthur students are White, 3% are Asian and yet 0% scored Advanced (5s) in Math while only 11% are Proficient (4). If you attributed ALL of the 4/5s in Math to White and Asian students, less than half of [i]that[/i] demographic is proficient or better in Math. 40% of all students are proficient or better in ELA.

Compare this to Banneker, a Title 1 school, where 92% are proficient or better in ELA and 53% scored 4/5s in Math and the White/Asian population collectively is 8%. McKinley Tech and DESA both outperformed Macarthur as well.

Do better. The facts aren't with you.

This is no diss to MacArthur. It's a new school and it will find its way. [/quote]
