[quote=Anonymous]"Honors for all" at Wilson at 9th grade is an example of a DCPS policy used to de-segregate the social classes. If all those white parents want those free AP classes badly enough, then they'll sit their kids down with all the other kids during 9th grade. Carrot then stick (sorry!!) policy. It would be interesting to see if there is any improvement in test scores at Wilson, for the lower-income students, after being immersed in "honors for all" during the 9th grade year. That result would support the theory that academic performance increases for the lower-income social classes when they are integrated in the classroom with wealthier students.[/quote]
