[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why wouldnt a school in ward seven be academic? I'd send my white kid there for a gifted program.[/quote] I would too, if my kids qualified. If the G&T magnet were metro-accessible I wouldn't think twice about it. Think of a guaranteed self-selecting cohort of motivated, high-performing smart kids. That is GOLD in DC. You aren't even guaranteed that in Ward 3, with all of the social supports in place that you'd expect in a closed universe of prosperous families with graduate-level education. -- JKLM mom[/quote] Ditto, but only if all the kids can do advanced work. It's a no-go if there are kids not at grade level who were admitted using some sort of holiste admissions bullshit.[/quote]
