[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Charm City native here. Baltimore has generally been this way for decades. The primary reason for public failure is because there are so many great, relatively affordable privates with decent financial aid and solid college lists. Would you ever send your child to a school with 0 math proficiency? Any parent who is even remotely willing or able get their kids out. The ones who are left are not only in a failing situation in every way, they don’t even get the benefit of more motivated peer and/or parents in their community[/quote] This is actually good news, because it means there are plenty of kids getting the education they deserve. I bet if some other districts had all their halfway-concerned parents leave for private school, they'd achieve similarly bad results[/quote]
