[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^^ Agreed on bureaucrats not wanting to spend the money for low income kids. So then I'll take the voucher so my kid can actually safely go to school somewhere.[/quote]

It's actually the voting public that doesn't support the spending.[/quote]

omg how much more spending do you need.  DC spends an insane amount on education and gets almost nothing back, you know why

It starts with the parents/culture.  When too many people don't value that, no amount of spending is going to fix this underlying problem[/quote]

OK, so gimme the voucher. Fixing DCPS is useless and people deserve a safe place for their children to learn.[/quote]

The research is quite clear that vouchers and charters don't really enhance student achievement. Sure KIPp gets high test scores, but their graduates really underperform their high test scores when it comes to college completion. When you control for family income, private schools do little for upper middle class kids. Please read the last billion or so peer reviewed studies.

DCPS schools like Janney easily outperform a lot of schools in the suburbs.[/quote]
