[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Umm, Deal gets kids from BOTH sides of the park and ALL SORTS of schools, not just the "highest SES families in DC"-the highest SES kid in Deal district probably go private, to be perfectly honest. [/quote] At some point higher SES doesn't really translate into better academics. I mean are the kids of lawyer-lobbyists really smarter/better prepared than the kids of high ranking civil servants and think tank types? [/quote] Both if those qualify as high SES. It's not purely income. It's educational attainment and other forms of social capital as well.[/quote] Correct - many highly educated people in DC choose lower paying civil service jobs. They are just as likely to contribute to their children's education as people with similar education attainment who took corporate jobs and are just as likely to have stable home environments and live in safe neighborhoods.[/quote]
