[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You heard it here first.  The uniforms will soon be a thing of the past -- a concession to IB feeder parents who are considering their options.[/quote]

OP here.

(I'm waiting on a flight and have some time to kill.)

Someone asked about Hardy FARMS last year. You will see the number below. I will also re-post my predictions about Hardy's demographics (in the spirit of a prediction that uniforms will be a thing of the past).

THESE ARE PREDICTIONS:
The IB percentage is 15% for the current year (up from 13%). 
The percent White has increased: 13% White (up from 11%). 
The percent Asian has increased: 10% Asian (up from 8%). 
The percent African-American has fallen: 60% (down from 64%). 
The percent Latino is about the same: 14% (it was 14% last year). 
FARMS has decreased by 20%: it is now 45% (down from 55%).

Finally, a bonus prediction: within year or two we will all of think of Stoddert in the same way people think of Janney now (for better or worse). Based on test scores, it will be the highest-performing DCPS ES. [/quote]

OP, your predictions are mostly confirmed:

Your predictions were very modest. You predicted a tiny increase in IB, and this is what has happened. The big test will be your prediction of a big IB jump in 2 years.

FAMRS is still 52 percent [/quote]
