[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, that is wrong. As of my latest data point, 2/3 of Hardy students choosing between JR and MHS choose MHS.

All "lottery seats" were matched with students attending Deal and Oyster. So the student body will be Hardy/Deal/Oyster almost exclusively.

Capitol Hill deserves [b]better by-right HSs.  [/b]But the idea that Macarthur would be part of the CH solution is absurd. [/quote]

They’ve got great facilities.

Oh wait, you meant fewer poors.[/quote]

It isn't poor people I object to. It's 93% of kids behind grade level and [b]a culture of low expectations[/b] perpetuated by people like you who refuse to demand more. [b]I don't want my kid in classes with kids behind grade level.[/b] I don't want my kid in a school with kids that cannot behave. I don't want my kids in schools where people like you think demanding academic excellence is "racist".

By all means, continue to win your little faux equity battle while kids with options whom you resent find alternatives and POC without options are failed for yet another generation. That'll teach me!

Are you afraid the kids behind grade level are going to infect your children somehow? Are your kids so delicate that they can thrive only if they are surrounded by kids you consider to be their academic peers?

Seems like you’re the one perpetuating a culture of low expectations….[/quote]

dp: If academic peers don't matter, then how come people throughout the city try to lottery into Banneker, Walls, J-R, and ESs with relatively test scores?[/quote]
