[quote=Anonymous]PP, Thanks for that, it does shed light on why there is such an aversion to it here. But tracking doesn't always have to fall along racial lines. The fact is, DC is already pretty segregated and there are a variety of skill levels in every school. Attending and graduating from predominantly AA schools in the midwest that tracked, I have experienced how tracking can benefit the population of students that need greater challenges than many of the other students. If an assessment (portfolio, standardized test, etc) could be given and used to determine where students are tracked based on skill level at each school it would be more objective perhaps. If parents knew that the option was there for kids at every school I think there would be less flight out of DCPS.[/quote]
