[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Playing the lottery is not elitist. Believing that a title 1 school could never possibly be any good is. I hear a lot of the only middle schools in DC that are any good at all and should ever be considered are Deal, Hardy, Latin, Basis, and DCI.[/quote] On the evidence we have, that list of middle schools are the only good middle schools in DC… and “good” is stretching it[/quote] There is some proportion of parents for whom the "good enough" threshold only includes these schools. Could be a variety of things -- rigorous science classes, the option for very advanced math, reading full novels (i guess this one is sadly up for debate). I am one.[/quote] I’m not sure if any DCPS middles have advanced science. I do know that some not on this list offer very advanced math (assuming that means geometry in 8th) and are requiring students to read full novels. [/quote]
