I'd like to see the results of a probing anonymous survey asking Ward 6 parents to rank their hierarchy of concerns in picking a DCPS public school, and sticking with it.

Without survey results, we aren't in a good position to know why most IB parents aren't willing to enroll their children at SH, EH, JA, Watkins, Miner, JO Wilson and Payne.  We also don't know why only about one-third of IB parents are willing to use Watkins and LT from 1st grade up.

Tests results are only one type of data on school quality and parent preferences that could be collected.  Many of us are more interested in variety of other factors - e.g. proximity to our homes/walkability, percentage of high SES families, percentage of students of our own race(s), teacher retention rates, strength of the arts and field trip programs, strength of school leadership, PTA fund-raising track record, facilities, support for advanced learners or special needs etc.[/quote]

Maybe you should get involved in the new OSSE school report card design process, and push them to include those things there. https://osse.dc.gov/builddcsreportcard
