[quote=Anonymous]Yep. The VOICE position is that these schools are "good enough" for families who reside in affordable housing. Where are they on actually improving those schools and getting them to do something other than get poor, low English proficiency kids up to lowest common denominator SOL standards (something they do pretty well, but don't strive to go beyond)? Nowhere. Poor immigrant kids deserve a chance to excel, not just barely pass SOLS. VOICE is focused on packing as many affordable housing units into a few mile stretch of Columbia Pike. Stable housing is a necessity, there's no doubt. But VOICE seems happy enough to feed these families educational crumbs, not the full Arlington meal. [/quote]
