[quote=Anonymous]The quotes I've seen and articles I've read lately about DC's boundary changes eludes to a long-term FUTURE desire to change/improve DC schools. So, mixing high, med and low SES now is not intended to improve life for your kids or other's kids now. It is to set the stage for a better integrated school system down the road. The hope is that high SES families will continue to stay in DC and enroll their kids in public schools (although I think the understand that the high SES school population will slow a bit). If this happens, then in 8-10 years the schools should be more diverse, integrated with overall higher test scores (with the high-SES families pulling them up). [/quote]
