[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes 16:02, but unfortunately, this:
 
"Past valedictorians of low-performing District high schools say their own transitions to college were eye-opening and at times ego-shattering, filled with revelations that — despite taking their public schools’ most difficult classes and acing them — they were not equipped to excel at the nation’s top colleges."

Unfortunately, I can relate to the educational trauma that I had experienced in DCPS.   The damage is real and severely disheartening.   The low expectations, the disruptive students, the lack of rigor, the lack of support from teachers, the inadequate college counseling from counselors,  and so many other horrible experiences.   It's a shame that DCPS fails students who really want to learn.   No one informs students from DCPS that once they get into top universities that they will struggle and suffer like Hell.
