[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Whites have always been included in the NAEP results -- just as they are in the DC-CAS results. It's not a slow news day at the Post -- it's an embarrassing day for the former and current chancellors who made closing the achievement gap in dc a top priority. [/quote] To their credit, history and urban development has been working against them. Whatever gap they may have helped diminish (if they did) was immediately widened again by the added influx of inherently high achieving socioeconomic groups. As reported, DC-CAS data are flawed in that they don't easily allow to draw conclusions in time. They're aggregate and don't actually track particular individuals' results, which is what we'd need here to validly conclude about these or those groups of individuals progressing in divergence or convergence.[/quote]
