[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Study after study has shown that the best thing the SAT demonstrates is income of the parents.[/quote][/quote] And that is generally true in the world of standardized testing.[/quote] While that maybe true. There is no way in hell higher SES parents would send their kid to a high school with this kind of SAT scores. Thus the exodus of whites, Asians, AA and everyone else who care about education leaving DCPS before high school, Ok, after K or third, or fifth grade.[/quote]Oh puh-lease, I wanted my white kid to go to Banneker and we are higher SES. She didn't get in.[/quote]She made it to the interview stage, which I think was the final cut. That day she told the committee that she couldn't handle pressure. I suspect that's why they didn't accept her. Those kids work very hard and dd in fact couldn't handle pressure at that time, so it was better that she didn't go there. I wished it had worked out but it wasn't right for her at that time.[/quote]
