[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is one of the most pathetic threads that I've seen in a long time. I'd wonder how Jeff would defend this one next time a study comes out against DCUM. [/quote]

What’s pathetic is the fact that DCPS middle schools regularly have  50- 75% of kid’s unable to come anywhere close to meeting literacy and math benchmarks. If you think this is a race issue think again. The wealthy/professional black parents at our ES are the first to jump ship to privates or charter MS. they are definitely NOT sending their kids to a school with only 8 kids who can pass PARCC math in their grade.

I wonder what would make those numbers go up? Could it possibly be more families of proficient students sending their kids to that MS?[/quote]

Golly gosh, what an original idea that nobody's ever brought up before. People don't want to sacrifice their kid's education and quality of life on the hope that DCPS will some day open its eyes and start consistently providing on- and above-grade level content. DCPS has made it crystal clear that they're unwilling to do that.[/quote]
