[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To OP -- if you haven't hung out on DCUM much, you wouldn't know (but might guess!) that 17:10 is using a typical tactic to try to enrage and insult you so that you'll leave in a huff and leave her alone in whatever fantasy she wants to construct.

Please don't go for it.[/quote]

excuse  me, I am asking him to stand by his truth telling, backed by statistics, that he moralized about above
FACT: I never referred to the white population at Basis because it was not a factor in my analysis
FACT: he quoted one stat from a profile from 2015 about our FARMS population NOW 
and then quoted another directly below about the number of white students who took the DC CAS in 2013, 
and implied he was referring to the same population, and that these statistics proved it had not changed over time

REALITY?  based on real statistics?  You can look them up

Basis DC took the DC CAS twice, hence my reference to the DC CAS of 2014 (which refers to the kids who were in 5th-8th grade in the school year of 2013-2014) which somehow, in his analysis, morphed into my denial of the composition of the Basis population in what he called "2014" which is actually the year 2014-2015 - who are taking the PARCC.

Since for me this was all about DC CAS scores and FARMS populations, I again challenge OP to prove me "unhinged"

[b]cite one statistic from a reputable source (I get that the charter board is stating the population of 2013-2014 as 2014-2015, and so should everyone else) that proves that

Basis DC, in the [/b]only two years we ever took [/b]the DC CAS (2013 when we opened and 2014)
had a similar FARMS population to the other two in the top 3 - Alice Deal and Washington Latin

and the results were 
2013
1) Deal (who I believe has a lot of white kids, but again this was not my focus - but very few FARMS kids
2) Washington Latin (much higher AA population, but again not a lot suffering from poverty)
3) Basis DC (I believe we were 37% FARMS that year but am not positive)
2014
1) Deal (whose population had not changed significantly)
2) Basis (this may have been the only year we were Title I - but we were Title I according to OSSE = 40% + FARMS
3) Washington Latin (again population did not change but for some reason charter board demoted them to Tier 2)

These are FACTS my friend, and when the IB people are talking about Hardy and then Latin and Basis and saying it clearly is not about race but some perception of inferiority is it about FARMS?  I have no clue.

Perhaps you should investigate instead of calling me names and letting my ex husband pile on (I recognize him)

This ought to be right up your alley, as an adult, as an economist, and as a member of the population of DC
Where [b]everyone says the only way that non-white FARMS kids can succeed is at KIPP or DC Prep[/b][/quote]

FACT:  EVERYBODY does not say that -- I don't for instance, and you provide no statistic backing up your perception of others' perception of KIP/DCP

FACT: OP can't "let" your ex pile on you here  - he and the rest of us are just writing on a message board, not  interfering in you personal life.[/quote]
