[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I must say the FARM students at the high-performing charter high-schools are raking up the scholarships.  They are getting full rides to many of the prestigious universities/colleges. [/quote]

Does DC have an existing high-performing charter high school (or middle school for that matter)? If so, I've never heard of it. I'm only aware of fairy new high-performing elementary schools (and start of a few middle schools like BASIS). PP, do you even live in DC?[/quote]

Yes.

Latin, Multiple KIPPs, Thurgood Marshall, Paul, Cap City, Haynes, DC Prep, Seed, 2 Rivers, Chavez prep.  Do you even live in DC?[/quote]

SEED, Haynes, and most of the Cesar Chavez campuses are Tier 2.  Paul, Two Rivers, DC Prep, and most of the KIPPs stop at middle school.

I'm also a bit leery of how well the KIPP curriculum translates to high school. It's one thing to do well on elementary standardized tests, but SATs and APs require some critical thinking.[/quote]

Paul is expanding to HS, and the KIPP MS all feed into the KIPP HS, whose is building an awesome new campus in Trinidad.
The question was whether there were any high performing high or middle charters.  Up until last year Haynes was tier 1.  There is a Chavez prep in tier 1.  The question was answered.  There are few more as well.

BASIS DC wasn't tiered because it was their first year but they came in higher on the DC-CAS than Washington Latin, they will be Tier 1.[/quote][/quote]
