[quote=Anonymous]The other thing that cannot not be disregarded and should be used in an apples to apples comparison: school demographics. Most, if not all DC schools are going to look way different when comparing to a suburban school. Give me a side-by-side performance comparison of schools with similar demographic profiles, then we can talk. One thing that appears to be certain is that average HHI in a school often, though not always, leads to the desired outcomes. Many of us know that our children will be fine because of our SES, but we look to better their chances by seeking the highest performing, i.e. higher SES school environments we can find without over leveraging ourselves financially. DCPS and charters allow us to do that.[/quote]
