[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The neighborhood is delightful. The attendance is due to selectiveness and the possibility of being kicked out for bad attendance, but also Banneker is well-served by bus and metro and has kids who are old enough to get to school on their own. You really can't compare that to elementary attendance stats.[/quote] Banneker and SWW's attendance rates are far ahead of every DCPS HS in this city. Metro accessibility is not the difference maker. OP, Banneker also assigns a citizenship grade each quarter which also factors in tardies and absences. Overall, however, it's because its a college prep school so it pulls the kids who want to be in school and will also need recommendation letters down the road. For most kids in the city, HS is as far as it goes.[/quote]
