[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC excels at creating its own difficulties with academic tracking at the MS and HS levels in DCPS and DCPCS, too.  Even BASIS isn't offering the rigor it could under a superior tracking and admissions system.  You've already got the economies of scale in DCPS (e.g. Deal) and the demographics to create more (Stuart Hobson, Hardy) without the political will.

OP, I'd start in Arlington and stay there.  10 years ago, Upper NW might have been worth it from K-12.  I don't think it is these days. [/quote]
Just so we’re clear on the relationship between DCUM and reality:

In 2014-15, 495 students took the SAT at Wilson. The average composite score, excluding the since-discontinued writing section, was 966.

In 2024-25, 699 students took the SAT at Jackson-Reed (fka Wilson). The average composite score was 1072.

This is the kind of objective, measurable increase in both enrollment and test scores that DCUM will describe as “decline.”[/quote]

I doubt the se is tight enough to call that difference in scores significant (let alone that the underlying test has changed… twice? In the meantime)[/quote]

Is that what you would say if the average SAT score at JR had [i]fallen[/i] from 1072 to 966 over the last decade?[/quote]
