[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I forgot to list a third option: continue to open charters whose school culture alienates poor parents. If you want start a charter that is *guaranteed* to have the highest test scores in the city, open a "Pro-Gay Arabic Immersion PCS". Your FARM eligible student population should be around 1%.[/quote] The charter schools actually serve more FARMs students than DCPS does. And they outperform them too. It's not just the Mandarin Immersion/Latin/Hebrew crowd, it's also KIPP, DC Prep, Howard Math & Science, etc. Those schools serve a very high percentage of FARMs students, and they do it well. Perhaps someone has cracked the code, you just haven't bothered to look and don't care because it doesn't affect your lily-white world.[/quote]
