[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]On a side note. I think that people here put too much importance on what the school does and not enough on the parents. Every meaningful study of schools shows that as incomes of the students rise, so does performance, no matter what else is done. Most of the neighborhoods are rapidly gentrifying. I just think it's funny that people don't think that as the demographics change, the schools want. From what I've read about some schools in east MoCo, a good school can certainly turn into a mediocre one in that period of time.[/quote]

This is so wonderfully naive--especially as it relates to DCPS particularly--that I don't know where to begin. I'll just say that I wish you the best with this line of thinking and that you might contemplate doing a little more research.[/quote]

It would be SO NICE if we were just five years away from the transformation of these schools, after decades and decades of complicated, multifaceted, structural and institutional problems. To be fair though, it's easy to be theoretical and delusional about schools when you don't have an actual child yet. [/quote]
