[quote=Anonymous]the problem with the average DCPS student, which DC does not appear able to fix, is that they are not on a trajectory to a stable job, i.e., they are not learning enough to get to community college and they are not being otherwise brought along with other skills programs. we're drifting toward another generation without prospects. in a world where that is most of what is happening in DCPS, extra AP and all that isn't most of what DCPS needs to do. Almost all of our kids are going to college (or some exciting alternative) even if they aren't doing their best. BASIS people are trying to make the difference between them going to UDC or UMD and them going to Stanford or Michigan. In a world with priorities, why expand the nice-to-have while the must-do isn't done? I don't like not being served, but I get where DC should put its priorities.[/quote]
