[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Or maybe Hardy would have offered above grade-level classes years ago to keep it from closing, or housed the test-in MS program high SES parents have long been clamoring for. [/quote] The irony is that when Patrick Pope was principal he turned Hardy into an application-only school on the down-low and the IB parents ran him out.[/quote] LOL! :oops: Another DCPS cock-up, young DCPS downtown staff knows best. [/quote] Pope made it application only to keep the most disruptive students out. But he also refused to consider advanced classes or test based placements, and basically told IB families they were racists for wanting classes appropriate for the level of their kids achievement. [/quote] Don't disagree, but the point is that making a school selective-admissions doesn't by itself guarantee anything.[/quote]
