[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We can always exercise common sense in analyzing data based on our observations. It's clear to me that the strongest students from our feeder (not just from cap hill) have an unfortunate tendency not to turn up, or stay if they do. This is particularly true of the math gifted and high SES native speakers of the languages taught. No, don't start claiming that advanced Chinese track is jammed with kids who mainly speak Chinese at home. I don't know of one and I've known these kids for 5,6 even 7 years.[/quote] Honestly, some of this is expected. We are going to try the lottery in fifth for BASIS for our math whiz. We know others that are planning on private school for middle or high school, regardless of what happens at DCI. Some high SES and gifted kids are always going to bail on feeder patterns for specialized schools or more rigor, even those who feed to Hardy and Deal, or the burbs.[/quote]
