[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]this is just so basic. This thread about needed gifted programs surfaces in some fashion almost daily. Why can't all these smart, organized parents demand this from DCPS. Yes, demand. As parents we should demand and expect more. I think the majority of folks on DCUM want this. I have no doubt that if SH or Hardy started a true advanced/gifted/ program the IB populations of those schools would skyrocket. Problem solved Kaya. No more trying to guess why so many high SES parents run for charters, privates and the suburbs at 5th grade. I can't believe the "experts" running DC would rather be politically correct than actually 1) solve the issue of kids abandoning middle school and 2) under enrollment and 3) low test scores.[/quote] Consdier that DCPS is not trying to keep high SES kids -- that they are being steered to charters by DCPS.[/quote]
