[quote=Anonymous]So DCPS is gentrifying but the numbers are small. Outside of the Hill, you have schools going from 0% white or 10% non-FARMS to 10% white and 30% non-FARMS. Those are big changes for a segregated system, no doubt, but they aren't going to dramatically change the math, especially as many of these gentrifying schools have few gentrifiers in 3rd grade, when testing begins. I mean, a class of 80 students at marginal passing/not passing on PARCC adds five high achievers. That's awesome - but it's such a marginal test score uptick.[/quote]
