[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What everyone seems to be saying is that Alston’s success is superficial, it only reflects the natural outcomes of the students it accepts, which generally include children of high achievers achieving, children of the less-degrees struggling. When they change the equation, they get to expand.

Right. But Latin 6-7 years ago was very different demographically. I don’t recall how it did on DC CAS etc. Does anyone know? [/quote]

If you look at the photos of the graduating classes of the past years they're almost totally minority[/quote]

So I dug up the 2013 Equity Report for Latin - which has the data from 2012-13. That was one year after Latin was fully built out, with grades 5-12 and one year before they moved into their permanent space. You can't really do an apples to apples comparison -- the annual test was DC-CAS and there was no at-risk designation, percentage qualifying for FARMS was how that was captured. It does, however, show how the school has changed. The discipline data then compared to now jumped out at me. https://osse.dc.gov/sites/default/files/dc/sites/osse/publication/attachments/2013_Equity_Report_PCSB_External_Washington%20Latin%20PCS%20%E2%80%93%20Upper%20School.pdf
