[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread is very eye opening. How can people in DC subject their children to substandard education all the way through high school?[/quote] [/quote] The vast majority of DCUM end up with a school that works for their kids - at each grade level - because when the school doesn't work for them for one year they are gone the next. The schools that get less than stellar discussion here have mixed records and sometimes less than stellar test scores, but the performance of the children of DCUM parents tracks with the educational attainment and expectations of the DCUM parents. My kids did great, while others at the schools they attended, did not. Were the courses always challenging? No, of course not, but that is a feature of HS for smart kids. They got lots of AP credits, went to great colleges and are very successful young adults now. [/quote]
