[quote=Anonymous]I think some posters have to remember that DC is predominately minority though quickly changing. DC in recent years has been in a surplus. The DC of today was very different from DC of yesteryear the 90s and early 2000s. More people are starting to send their children to public schools in DC (charters are considered public). Demographics matter when it comes to socioeconomics not race. People want to put their children in a school that is not too poor because then it starts to impact your children's education. Research has proven that middle class and upper middle class can absorb some poor students but if the demographics shift too far down, then no one benefits. PARCC scores are important but working with your children at home and providing them with enriching opportunities are more important. All schools struggle with PARCC schores especially when there is a high percentage of ELL, SPED and high FARMS students. [/quote]
