[quote=Anonymous]Rhee succeeded in getting middle-class white parents to buy into DCPS in many neighborhood schools. As DC's demographics continue to change, individual local schools will continue to come around. Rhee didn't effect a district-wide improvement in all metrics because DCPS is a majority-poor school district. And majority poor school districts are failing school districts. When DCPS is no longer majority poor, it will then begin to improve across the entire district. Until then, it will improve at the local school level. That means that instead of 4 elementary schools where a middle-class parent would consider sending their child to school, there may be 8. Or 10. Or 12. Instead of two middle schools where a middle-class parent would consider sending their kids to school, there may be 4. That's what DCPS improvement is going to look like. That and actually getting textbooks to students on time.[/quote]
