[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I will never understand adults who post on DCUM comparing and trashing local high schools. There are people out there who really need to do some self-reflection and examine why they feel the need to trash students and obsess over testing stats. Whether it’s DCI, Banneker, JR, or SWW a lot depends on how much effort kids put into their education. Get a life people.[/quote]

Re-read the thread.  Someone asked why students had to do mandatory classes before and after school at Banneker when they did not have to at another school with a similar diploma program.

Banneker booster mis-lead PP above by asserting it’s always been this way as the reason.  It’s easy to see why when you look at the data.  The kids need extra classes to even have a shot at getting the IB diploma.  He got called out on it.

Then Banneker booster was the one doing the comparison and tried unsuccessfully to explain the reason of mandatory before and after school classes as minor differences in start/end time and put up stats with no context.  He got called out again and rightly so.

You can post anything you want in an anonymous site.  But data doesn’t lie.  [/quote]

Right, data doesn’t lie.

Banneker has better PARCC results than DCI.

Feel free post the average IB results for the two schools.  DCI is well below the global average—and so is Banneker.[/quote]
