[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is the percentage of Middle Schoolers who stay for nigh school? [/quote] More than 80%, but then most DCI MS and HS students are low SES. A more interesting percentage is how many high SES DCI Middle Schoolers stay for high school. I estimate around half in the last two years. If you read between the lines on the data DCPC collects (look at the spike in the at-risk population between MS & HS). The main problem is that many of the strongest feeder students leave for BASIS or Latin after 4th grade. There's another big drop-off of UMC families after 8th grade, with parents leaving for Walls, Wilson, Banneker, privates, the burbs. Admins don't seem to give a hoot about the high SES exodus. They care about the length of DCI waiting lists/bodies in seats.[/quote]
