[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If the goal is to increase the enrollment of high-SES kids, DCPS would have to do specific things. Some of those things might make the school less attractive to low-SES kids, who are the vast majority of middle schoolers in DC. So what do people want--a small school that is good for rich families whose kids are at or above grade level, or a big school? I know what posters on DCUM want. But that's not necessarily what DCPS does, or should, want. [/quote] What you're saying makes sense, but isn't reflected in what's actually happening. DCPS is trying to do things to be attractive to low SES kids, and almost no one is interested.[/quote]
