[quote=Anonymous]Please, you guys must have something better to do than to serve as apologists for DCPC in failing to serve our City's best and brightest charter students well. Other than at BASIS, the charter boards freely uses open admissions as a crutch not to push, challenge or celebrate their highest-performing students, including bilingual students who speak languages of "immersion" study who happen to come from affluent families. I graduated from one of the first public high schools in the country to adopt the IB Diploma curriculum, back in the early 1980s. I grew up in a small town where more of my classmates enlisted in the military than went on to 4-year colleges. Yet town's IB program makes DCI's look like the skim milk version. I remember our principal taking one study trip after another to Geneva, prep schools teaching IB, international schools abroad teaching it, until he knew what he was doing. I don't see anywhere near that kind of determination in the mix at DCI. [/quote]
