[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]the issue with charter and DCPS "percentages" is how to approach the data from Wards 5, 7, and 8 where charters have grown massively and are very disproportionately at-risk.

The picture for charters used by parents who live in Wards 1, 4 and 6 is different. They are what produces a Latin, where there are lacrosse teams and the at-risk kids get the same growth metrics as if they went to Kramer, Anacostia, or Ballou.[/quote]

Where do you get that at-risk kids have same growth metrics at LAtin and at Ballou, etc?  The Washington post article says that Latin at risk kids do better than at-risk kids at DCPS schools.  Are Ballou, Kramer, Anacostia doing better than other DCPS high schools?  I'd be very interested to hear where you are getting that info and how those schools are doing better at growth metrics than general DCPS high schools at large and better than Latin specifically.

Or did the Washington Post article mis-state the facts and Latin at-risk kids really are doing worse than at-risk kids at DCPS by-right schools?  [/quote]
