[quote=Anonymous]Are the major gains that DCPS and DC PCS students have made in DC CAS due to/due in part to increased numbers of high SES students entering schools? The presentation made by DCPS [url]http://dc.gov/DCPS/Files/downloads/ABOUT%20DCPS/Announcements/2013%20DC%20CAS%20Presentation-Final.pdf[/url]) at p. 39, shows a gain for FARM (14,306 students) from 28.4% in 2007 to 37.6% in 2009, dropping in the next two years, but regaining 37.6% in 2013. If poorer students did well this year - are overall gains attributable at all to increasing income? Is any of it to do with more entering students who are not FARM students? I don't mean to push any agenda with this - I want to know what people think about whether DC is actually getting better at educating students who are low income, or whether demographic shifts are driving some of this. Thanks.[/quote]
