[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nonsense. Families of high-performing 8th graders who stuck with DCPS for middle school have always done very well in admission to Walls, Banneker and Ellington. The trend is readily apparent to anybody who's been paying attention to who gets in where for high school for many years, like we have.

Except that is nonsense. There is an inherent oxymoron in your statement. High performing kids don’t go to failing schools.[/quote]

SH is not a failing school by any reasonable definition. It definitely has high performing kids. It got a bunch of kids into Walls this year.[/quote]

Tell yourself whatever helps you sleep at night. [/quote]

If is correct that that high performing kids don’t go to failing schools, then SH obviously isn’t failing with 60+ kids getting at least 1 5 on PARRC; basically one full class per grade.[/quote]

You’re reading the data incorrectly. [/quote]

No… I’m not. There are 13% ELA 5s at a 500+ person school. That means there are more than 60 kids getting 5s even if all the math 5s are repeats. Try again.[/quote]

Link your sources then.  DCPS doesn't break the data down far enough to tell you this. [/quote]

I think my favorite aspect of the fake data poster is that they’re only concerned with white kids. Yet I bet they have an obnoxious yard sign, have possibly joined sws’s who’re parents club, and obnoxiously talk about how woke they are. Yet when it comes down to it, SH is a “acceptable option” because their white kids will be fine. Just disgusting all around. [/quote]

What? The only data I posted was that 13% of kids at SH got 5s on the PARCC ELA. And the school has over 500 kids. Of course that data is available, it's even on the school profile: https://profiles.dcps.dc.gov/Stuart-Hobson+Middle+School+(Capitol+Hill+Cluster). What does this have to do with race? Nothing else you say about me above is true... but also, what does my "fake data" have to do with race?[/quote]
