[quote=Anonymous]You are fooling yourselves. DCPS is pretty bad, but not for the reasons you think. It's not the test scores that matter, but the generally weak curriculum, which is high octane on skills but anemic on content. If you're looking for a curriculum that is rich in humanities, history, literature, you're not going to get that at any DCPS school, WOTP, EOTP, whatever. It's all the same lousy curriculum, heavily based on Common Core Standards, which, if you've actually read them, you would know how incredibly awful they are. I know. I use them everyday. Test scores are a distraction. When your kids go to your precious Ivy, they will feel inferior, because, compared to students who attended good private schools that have excellent curricula, your kids won't know as much. Take that to David Catania.[/quote]
