[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think DCPS is doing a great job making progress considering that, unlike charters, they can't IN ANY way "cherry pick" students. Or "counsel them out". [/quote] Or impose barriers to entry, such as only taking kids at certain entry times, or require parents to be savvy about a lottery months ahead of the start of school, or have enormous transportation hurdles. Many DCPS schools in the poorest neighborhoods have kids from the most dysfunctional families, because any families that are savvy enough to leave, do so. Then the DCPS schools have an even harder time because their students have so many barriers to entry that the cycle continues.[/quote]
