[quote=Anonymous]A lot of DC's education issues are outside of the schools. A lot of DC's lowest-performing students come from homes that don't even know what "normal" is from the perspective of DCUM posters. They grow up in homes with multigenerational poverty and dysfunction, they lack meaningful or realistic role models, they lack stability and support at home. Part of me thinks robust after school and summer school programs that can teach them what's lacking and teach the needed life skills that DCUM posters take for granted are what are needed most.[/quote]
