[quote=Anonymous]+1. SAT scores in DCPS schools are nothing to brag about across the board. SWW & Banneker do OK, but they are among the weakest test-in schools in the nation. Look at the stats on Newsweek's "Best American High Schools" list if you doubt this. I'm a Russian immigrant who arrived at age 12 yet scored 720 no the verbal section of the SAT, 790 on the math, in a struggling urban public school. Very few of my American classmates seemed to read classics for pleasure, as many high school students do in Russia. Kids who don't read quality literature for fun on a regular basis invariably don't do very well on the SAT verbal section. Teachers and test prep can only do so much. [/quote]
