[quote=Anonymous]While the students at Title I schools are needy, the schools often aren't. DCPS employs a weighted student funding formula that gives more money to ELL, Title I, at risk students, etc. (as they should). Your NWDC school is probably getting the bare minimum allowed under the formula. This situation does lead to a scenario where the more well-off parents fund the school to help make up the difference. You might want to direct your anger at DCPS for taking advantage of parents' willingness to fund schools with after tax dollars. [/quote]
