[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This happened after school and curfew would not have been appropriate.

[b]Don't get it twisted Banneker students was fair game of Cardozo's students and there was plenty of fist-a-cuffs at the metro.

This happens at all schools just ask the metro-police[/b].[/quote]

If I'm decoding the above correctly, Cardozo students went after Banneker students in retaliation ("fair game") for some insult or injury, and this took place at or near a metro ("fist-a-cuffs {sic} at the metro" and "metro-police").

Did I get that right?  Was there a Cardozo v. Banneker brawl as well?

BTW, breaking down the size, demographics, SES levels, test scores, etc. of those four schools is pretty interesting.  [url=http://www.greatschools.org/school-district-boundaries-map/?districtId=1&level=h&schoolId=120&state=DC]The rankings I see on greatschools.org[/url] look like this on a scale of 1 to 10 (10 is best, see below).  The precise methodology is unclear, though cannot be purely test scores, as Walls is the highest performer across the board, with Banneker not far behind.  Note that where schools share a score (9, 6, and 4, below) they are listed alphabetically.

10 - Banneker
9 - McKinley
9 - Walls
8 - Ellington
7 - Wilson
6 - CHEC
6 - Phelps
4 - Ballou
4 - Cardozo
4 - Coolidge
4 - Dunbar
4 - Springarn
4 - Woodson
3 - Roosevelt
2 - Anacostia
NR - Eastern

I'm counting on [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zS2qNc188Ps]our own Swedish Chef[/url] to make this as clear as mud-wrestling.

Isn't GreatSchools calibrated by state?  So, like, a 9 on GS for DCPS = a 3 on GS for MCPS, and a 4 on GS for DCPS = -5 for MCPS?[/quote]
