[quote=Anonymous]In the boundary review they had documents that showed the percentage of kids who attend public who live in boundary for each school who attend that school. What they didn't show is the percentage of total kids -- those who attend private as well as public -- and I have never seen DCPS or DME even discuss those numbers. I think as far as they're concerned kids who go private are just another species altogether and not their concern. The Urban Institute's numbers are estimates made by taking the population from the census and substracting public school enrollment, they don't measure private school attendance directly. When that report came out there was a lot of discussion about how that methodology was flawed. Anecdotally It does not seem like there has been a dramatic drop in private school enrollment in the past decade, it seems like every private school is expanding.[/quote]
