[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The true problem here is that alot of in boundary elementary schools have alot of out of boundary slots due to maybe kids going private or the neighborhood doesn't have alot of kids in it. That being said DEAL is at capacity with all there feeder schools. Why is Hardy such a big deal there are specialized schools all around the city and becasue Hardy was renovated the neighborhood feel its too good for OOB students?[/quote]

You got it wrong.  The academics at Hardy are too weak for IB families. Hardy lags far behind Deal and suburban MS. And is light years behind private MS. So the IB kids go to private for MS, move, or pretend they live IB for Deal.[/quote]

No, you got it wrong -- before Pope was ousted and IB families were angling to get in to Hardy, the academics were comparable to Deal  (check the DC-CaS #s at the osse site) minus the asian factor -- lots of asians bringing up the total scores at Deal vs no asians to speak of at Hardy.[/quote]

Here are some facts:

According to the DC-CAS results on the OSSCE website:

Fewer white students at Hardy are advanced than at Deal
Fewer white students at Hardy are provicient or advanced than at Deal
Fewer black students at Hardy are provicient or advanced than at Deal
Fewer (any race) students at Hardy are provicient or advanced than at Deal
Fewer FARMS students at Hardy are provicient or advanced than at Deal

By no metric is the academic performance of students at Hardy on par with those at Deal.

"Facts" with nothing to back them up.  No mention of what year(s) you're talking about, the total populations of the schools, no actual numbers at all and no mention of asians.  [/quote]
