[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The perspective of Chancellor Henderson, like most everyone at DCPS, ignores the reality that one of the biggest reasons (if not the primary reason for most DC neighborhoods) that parents desire to traverse the city to get an education for their kids is because the most motivated parents in their respective neighborhoods are already traversing the city to get an education for their kids. The situation today is very much different than in the days of Brown. "Segregation" today means something completely different than it did then. I strongly believe that if DCPS instituted policies that encouraged development of strong neighborhood schools, then many (though not all) neighborhoods in the city would soon have dramatically improved neighborhood schools.
