[quote=Anonymous]But the Stanton Park neighborhood is not completely different than large swathes of the suburbs. It's become more affluent and expensive for home buyers than much of MoCo and Fairfax. Test scores in local schools do not belie the reality of our current prosperity. We need what our friends and colleagues in the burbs have to gain confidence in our public schools: GT, pull-out groups galore, test-in middle schools, serious high school magnets and PSAT/National Merit Scholarship Semifinalists in the double digits (this year, all DC public produced 5 Semifinalists, by my count, fewer than 14 suburban individual high schools in MoCo, Fairfax and Arlington). Once we start organizing to vote out pols who won't push DCPS and DC Charter to deliver for upper middle-income families, we'll get better results. [/quote]
