[quote=Anonymous]I hate to say it, but keeping middle and upper class families of all sorts through middle school on Capitol Hill is as simple ( and as complicated ) as dcps creating an academic magnet or test in middle school program. That's it. Done. No more losing kids to basis, Latin or suburbs. When Hill parents told dcps that an IB middle years program would keep them from leaving the system, many also said there needed to also be a way to have a school with at least half the kids starting able to read and do math on grade level. DCPS went for the IB without the mechanism for creating a cohort that wasn't a majority of students needing remediation. That's gonna be a hard sell.[/quote]
