[quote=Anonymous]You've got to look deeper. DC Charter AA students on average score 24% in ELA, DCPS 15%. Math is 23% for charter vs 12.9% in DCPS. Charters clearly do better educating our AA kids. None of the schools you mention (ITS, CMI, MV) have a large enough population to even report white student performance. ITS had 132 test takers in 3rd-7th grade, ITS has hardly any Asian or Hispanic students. Thus, at least 93 out of the test takers at ITS were AA (70%). The fact that more than 2/3 the school is black and they scored 32% in Math when the statewide average (charter and DCPS) for AA students is only 19.3% should tell you more of the story. MV had 128 test takers that means, ditto. Yes, when you look at raw numbers, I could see how an uneducated would surmise that these “HRCS” are poor. Look a little deeper and you may find what you’re looking for. Call it excuse or call it facts. That’s up to you. [/quote]
