[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can you imagine being so privileged that among your top concerns is building a new playground???  Out of curiosity I looked at the report card (https://dcpcsb.org/sites/default/files/media/file/DC%20Report%20Card_Sela%20PCS.pdf), first of all this is a Ward 4 school that has a lot of upper-middle-class white and (probably???) Jewish families. They are 22% at risk, which is really LOW for a DC Charter School. They have a 4/5 star rating! And their enrollment is actually growing, even if by small amounts. This might as well have been signed as "Concerned Karen's who want to speak to your manager" LOL[/quote]

Why don't you fill us in on the academic data here.

There's some very weird data in this report card. More than 50% of ECE students and nearly a third of other students were chronically absent? There is a bizarre gap in male/female ELA achievement which is not at all representative of DC wide data. The growth data is awful (3.5 points out of 50?!?).[/quote]

It's only weird if you don't look at the overall data for DC : https://schoolreportcard.dc.gov/state/report#measure-102

46.7% of Pre-K students were chronically absent, meaning they were absent for more than 10 percent of school days.
39.9%  of students were chronically absent, meaning they missed more than 10 percent of school days.[/quote]

Right but it's weird in light of Sela's at-risk percentage which is well [b]below the city average[/b].[/quote]

This is not a thing. The relevant "average" depends entirely on the comparables one chooses. Brent is 6%. Janney 2%. Two Rivers 20 and 22%. Boone 87%. Savoy 89%. Lee East End 10%. [/quote]
