[quote=Anonymous]I don't think the schools need to cut down on FARMS percentages, but they definitely need to up the number of kids proficient in ela and math BEFORE they arrive at the middle school. Or else manufacture some kind of academy or magnet school that has the same effect. Not saying students who are behind for whatever reasons don't need and deserve and are entitled to the highest quality education available. Am just pointing out the undeniable truth that a DCPS MIDDLE school that has a larger number of academically challenged students than those entering on grade level will never be able to attract academically ambitious families--black, white, rich, poor whatever. Not a demographic thing. It's a reality thing caused by a school system that has a really hard time doing quality middle school. [/quote]
