[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow. I wonder how the reporters got hold of this document:

"At Success Academy Fort Greene, the same day that Ms. Ogundiran heard from the principal, her daughter’s name was one of 16 placed on a list drawn up at his direction and shared by school leaders.
The heading on the list was “Got to Go.”

Isn't this exactly what SWS and Banneker do, and part of the reason why they are great schools?

[b]Why the fake outrage about charters?[/b]
The real outrage should zoom in those schools, charter or not, failing most students -- DCPS schools, more often than not.[/quote]

Why is it fake outrage? I think it's real outrage. Of course charter schools will do better than regular public schools if charter schools can just kick the problem students out and back to the regular public schools.[/quote]

Because that's about as stupid as saying that "Of course Banneker will do better than regular public schools if Banneker can just kick the problem students out and back to the regular public schools"

Banneker and SWW and many charters do a great job precisely because they work hard to maintain high standards.
