[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Half the kids at the high school near me are standing outside smoking pot in the middle of the school day. But, sure, let's focus on how BASIS, with some of the highest test scores in the city, is the real problem. [/quote] This. The point about the many DCPS schools with frightening low CAPE scores is that *those tax-payee funded public schools are not meeting the needs of all kids* either. They definitely aren't meeting the needs of advanced students, and are they actually meeting the needs of average and high needs kids? What kind of future are they preparing them for?[/quote] There is a very real stain of thinking that finds programming for advanced students as inherently inequitable and improper in an urban educational landscape. There really is no compromise on such a fundamental ideological fissure. [/quote]
