[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The reality is that you cannot create a white and Asian school in DC. Don't try to create something you won't be able to achieve. Setting the bar above the achievement gap too far makes this a non starter. And let's be optimistic. If this gets going and we have success in closing achievement gaps in DC, we can do better. But don't go asking for a school that will only serve a couple of DC's tribes, even if for good reason. Access, equality and fairness are politically important.[/quote] There are definitely more than enough kids in DC to fill a high performing school in DC. And, there are definitely enough parents who would be behind something like this in a heartbeat. The only thing lacking is the political will. These kids currently DO NOT have access to a school that fully meets their needs. [/quote]
