[quote=Anonymous]Do we really think that sending black and Spanish kids to neighborhoods their parents can’t afford will make them do better? Magic white kid proximity smarts ? Most of the studies show kids leaving underfunded districts going to rich white districts which isn’t the case here Most of the golden ratios for these (loaded) papers are much lower than can be achieved in MoCo. Good luck getting 20% farms in silver spring The controls are rarely stringent. The take a few motivated poor kids and boom they do better, even though they were the motivated kids to start with and they would have done ok just about anywhere. Even if you concede that one less kid will fail if you move a bunch of poor kids to a rich school, what does that do for the 95% you left at the old school? They are still poor minorities in a school that scores about as well as poor minorities do. Or do you think the 5% white kids shipped in while show the other 95% how to study? [/quote]
