[quote=Anonymous]The problem is, this data doesn't tell you what the landscape looked like before there were charters. Or the counterfactual of what things might look like if charters weren't on the scene. Is the distribution of at-risk kids inequitable now? Yes. I also suspect that it's less inequitable than it's been in the recent past, even in DCPS. Because a good number of those non-at-risk kids in the charter schools WOULD NOT BE in the system if not for the charters - which is to say, the whole denominator would be different. This analysis also doesn't account for the fact that a bunch of the charters have moved neighborhood several times in the past few years, which makes the direct comparison of their student body composition and those of their most proximate DCPS poorly considered.
