[quote=Anonymous]I'd like to see the DME taken to task for embracing social engineering BS. Take a look at achievement gap data for Brent, which is generally regarded as one of the highest achieving schools EotP. http://profiles.dcps.dc.gov/scorecard/Brent+Elementary+School The FARMS rate is roughly 11 percent and yet approx three times as many AA students are Basic and Below Basic as compared to Whites. Moreover, three to four times as many White students test as advanced when compared to their AA classmates. (BTW, I am aware that many AA students are not from low-income families). What does the DME make of these disparities? And how do "choice sets" and other half-baked concoctions suddenly bridge the gap in the face of what appears to be the reality of public education in DC?
