[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Privileged PK parent?  Give us a break. Neighborhood schools are supposed to primarily serve...neighbors. Yea, we're a privileged lot here in the Ludlow-Taylor district, buying our million dollar row houses. Cobbs' enjoyed being rude to in-boundary parents who weren't black.

DC-CAS test scores were suspiciously high at Ludlow for low SES AA students. Once the much-harder-to-cheat-on PARCC was rolled out in 2012, Cobbs and teachers were busted, with scores dropping precipitously overnight.  Ludlow's proficiency pass rate dropped by 40% in a single year and has never recovered for AA students.  It was an outrage the DC Attorney General's Office and the DC Inspector General never investigated.  [/quote]

Except that LT still has some of the highest test scores for AAs in the city. The scores two years ago were particularly impressive.[/quote]

Please stop doing that. Actual data and facts are not nearly as important as the narrative this woman and her yoga friends have created and perpetuated. Please also take a moment to enjoy the Trumpian subtext that the only way these poor black and brown OOB kids could have succeeded was by cheating. It simply would not have been possible to have closed an achievement gap by concentrating resources on those kids.   [/quote]
