[quote=Anonymous]Yes, applies to all DCPS schools, JKLM, Brent etc. The question is, what should your reaction be given your circumstances? Only you can an answer that. Some parents move to the burbs. Some go private from age 3 to 18, or just for ES, or MS, or HS. Some supplement extensively, others don't. We don't like the cocoon atmosphere at many privates, though our two children would almost certainly be admitted to a good program if they applied. We could afford a strong parochial school, if not a pricey non-sectarian private like St. Albans or Sidwell. What we do is stay in DCPS for now and work hard to compensate for a curriculum and teaching that is just OK. We supplement a good deal, and offer the kids incentives to work diligently on a variety of on-line programs (Khan Academy etc.). We also nudge them to read a lot independently, which they do.
