[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]McKinley Tech kind of surprised me. [/quote] There are 4710 8th graders in DCPS+charter this year. Only 39% of 7th graders got a 4 or 5 on the PARCC in 2018, so figure about 1837 kids. Of them, how many also got a 4 or 5 on math? Not possible to tell from the OSSE results--let's say 3/4. Plus there's a gpa requirement. So maybe 1300 kids were eligible to apply for McKinley Tech. Many of them like the high school they have a right to attend. Some are going private or moving. And others preferred other schools with PARCC requirements: Banneker, SWW, or wanted to try Bard: between those three schools there were 475 seats available for 9th grade. I'm really glad to see there aren't kids getting 4s and 5s on the PARCC who are shut out of selective high schools. [/quote]
