[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Currently there are about 82,500 kids who go to public school in DC. About 21,000 of them attend an in-boundary DCPS school, just about a quarter. There are 26,500 who go out-of-boundary to DCPS schools and 35,000 in charters. [b]So over 60,000 kids each day are leaving their neighborhoods to attend school[/b]. [/quote] I find this statistic incredibly depressing. It is a statistic that reveals the deep dysfunction of DCPS.[/quote] I'll take a nuanced view. On an individual level, it's 60,000 kids who are able to chose a better school than their neighborhood school. On a systemic level it's a disaster.[/quote]
