[quote=Anonymous]Most of the DCPS schools are not a suitable option for anyone who's looking to have their child get ahead. It used to be that public schools had a variety of offerings, from academic tracks, where things like 7th/8th grade Algebra would not be an issue, to vocational/technical schools where if a kid wasn't into academia, he could at least still get valuable skills for the workplace, and so on. Nowadays, it seems like most of those things aren't even a viable option, yet alone be solidly available. Many coming out of the DCPS system haven't even mastered the basics like reading, writing and basic math. It's all been watered down to the point of not being much more than a glorified daycare, and kids are emerging not ready for much of anything.[/quote]
