[quote=Anonymous]So teach tiny honors classes at first. Spend the dough, build the challenge, attract IB kids and watch honors class sizes grow year on year. It's not as though funding is the main problem, given that the city is prepared to sink 25-30 million to sink into the physical plant at JA. Hints: Scores of rising 6th graders who live in the catchment area score 4s and 5s on the 5th grade PARCC. Washington Latin admitted less than 20% of 5th grade applicants this year. BASIS is unlikely to clear its 5th grade WL for the first time this year. Ward 6 kids no longer have access to Deal. Stuart Hobson, Hardy and Two Rivers have long 6th grade WLs. DCI's 6th grade will soon fill up with students from its language immersion feeders. Ward 6 families who can't access the above high SES friendly middle schools would take a chance on JA if DCPS were to meet them halfway by creating honors classes. [/quote]
