[quote=Anonymous]MoCo public schools offer middle school test-in programs, and permit kids who are proficient in target languages to test into language immersion programs to replace drop-outs from K-8th grade. Without being able to screen for high-performers/GT students and language proficient students, DC charters can't attract and retain a critical mass of these kids through high school. Other than BASIS, our elementary and middle school charters hold a good many kids back academically. The arrangement promotes pointless white and high SES flight from DC, with no end in sight. Congress should stop shoveling money at this idiocy. The poor kids don't benefit when high SES families bail on an epic scale. [/quote]
