[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]CLOSE the race/income gap? In the same category as growing crops on the moon. The most cost-effective approach to narrowing the gap is to keep high SES kids from excelling in schools with many low SES kids. An old trick in DCPS. [/quote] Van Ness Elementary School has another approach. Van Ness offers a rigorous curriculum for all students. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/education/wp/2017/06/02/the-pre-k-boom-in-d-c-can-it-help-end-school-segregation/?utm_term=.3569f9315cc9 [/quote] I think the oldest children at Van Ness now are about 6 years old. They won't have test results for a little while. Offering a rigorous curriculum to kids does not guarantee that they will learn it.[/quote] I guess you should move to Arlington, then, if it is all so hopeless. [/quote]
