[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Banneker been doing the same exact thing for years and not a peep. SWW explicitly states kids won't be penalized for incomplete or missing recs. So you have a case if you have proof that your kid was negatively impacted. There are only 150 slots so every deserving kid was never going to be admitted. Don't over think it or try to rationalize it. https://enrolldcps.dc.gov/sites/dcpsenrollment/files/page_content/attachments/SY24-25%20SWW_Admission%20Process%20Rubric_Final.pdf[/quote] My understanding is that Banneker largely uses teacher recs to screen IN kids whose grades might otherwise be marginal. Which seems like an appropriate use of a teacher recommendation. [/quote] Not so sure about that. The recs do allow for a misstep or two. That's why SWW changed it's process. Kids had to be close to perfect. Banneker is a black box. They admit who they want and do seem to do things to keep the Title 1 status. But no one wants to touch that.[/quote]
