[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That is the school and it is not limited to black boys. Any boy's family can apply. White families would NEVER apply to this school given its location and so far all black population.[/quote]

Exactly. Just like white families don't apply to Banneker even though it's the best performing school and almost as central in the city as one can get. Eyeroll.[/quote]

[b]Kids at wilson, walls and latin outperform banneker. And those schools are closer to home for many.[/b]

That is why whites do not send kids to banneker.[/quote]

Fact is according to US News and Report, Banneker is #2 behind walls and well above Wilson and Latin.  Sorry, try again next time.

Walls- #163
Banneker- #182
Gonzaga- #227
Wilson- #300
Georgetown Visitation- #343

Latin- #1565

What were you saying about Banneker?  It appears that Banneker is ranked higher than 2 very expensive private schools, and well above Latin.

Keep your alt-facts for the trump supporters.[/quote]

Not at any of these schools, but isn't Banneker a few decades old?  And Latin is maybe 4 years?[/quote]

PP here. The age of the school is irrelevant.  What matters is that, at the time of data collection, both Banneker and Latin had a fully functioning high school.  Students at Banneker, have been consistently outperforming other schools in the area.  The purpose of my post was just to dispute the statement that students at Latin and Wilson outperform Banneker students.[/quote]
