[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is like 76 pages of slides on diversity in schools, integration, policy approaches, and all that from the Strategic School Planning Advisory Board last week. It is a shitload of stuff to get through and it looks really, really interesting. (Just if that's your thing, rather than coming here to complain about why Upper NW doesn't have everything all the time.)

Really interesting, thanks for sharing.

This is a shocking stat: "Since 2008, DCPS has [u]yearly[/u] enrolled 500 to 1,000 additional Hispanic/Latino and White students, while enrolling 600 fewer Black or African American students on average."

Also, it's bizarre that nearly 5% of DCPS students come from "[b]unknown Ward."[/b] Even with divorced homes, the kids would be assigned to a Ward of a parent or relative.

It looks like DCPS is seriously considering adding At-Risk preference to the lottery. That said, with OOB seats basically disappearing at all desirable schools within the next 2-4 years, I'm not sure the preference will help all that much. [/quote]

No. They are foster kids placed with parents outside the city, because there are too few foster parents who live in DC. Don't be an ass.[/quote]
