[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you people not understand a Venn diagram or basic logic? G&T kids only make up 3-5% of the student body and almost all of them will go on to college, and typically grad school and/or professional licensure, et cetera. Virtually all of them will make use of the AP/honors/enrichment classes to some degree or another, whether for subsequent college coursework, professionally, or otherwise. Comparatively, the rest of the general school population won't. In DCPS the dropout rate is 40% who won't even finish high school. Of the remaining 60% in DCPS who do graduate, only a subset, and smaller percentage will go on to college.[/quote] But... those top 3 % do not end up in the top 3%. So......[/quote]
