[quote=Anonymous]DCPS is doing the best they can with high-need low-SES students. I commend their efforts. The few DCPS schools that have high #s of high-SES students are nice places. I would gladly send my kid to any of them. It's not secret that many of these schools do well because the parents essentially pay for the extras. DCPS is straight-up failing middle class students from mid-SES families who want a typical middle class education for their kids with things like before care, clubs, a functional GT program, and a low occurrence of behavioral problems that interrupt learning. Particularly after K or 1st. If the lottery doesn't work out and you want to own a home in DC, you move. If that does not get fixed, DCPS will never attract the critical mass of involved, educated parents that it needs to come closer to thriving. [/quote]
