[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Banneker and School Without Walls are the top high schools. Lots of DCPS elementary schools at the top of the ratings. For the charters, Latin, Friendship and Center City have campuses in the top.

The official OSSE site is here https://schoolreportcard.dc.gov/home. 
It may be easier to navigate the information on the EmpowerK12 site https://www.empowerk12.org/dc-accountability-scores-dashboard.

Looks like BASIS and Walls have the best numbers.  However, Basis is 100% lottery and Walls selects its students.[/quote]

Is BASIS really a lottery if they kick kids out who don’t pass their many tests? Walls can’t do that… [/quote]

Basis does not kick out kids, they just don't pass them unless they actually pass.  I haven't heard of anyone not passing in high school at Basis.  I have also not heard of Walls accepting any kids who aren't passing in middle school.[/quote]

Untrue, this is a funny little thing about charter schools. They do and can push families out after count day. It doesn’t always work but they do try and can, unlike DCPS.[/quote]

DCPS doesn't kick out of boundary kids out? Send them back to their home schools? Because there is a lot of movement between DCPS schools throughout the year and most of it is North to South and West to East.[/quote]

I believe technically they can, but seldom do.

It's a mistake to assume all movement is involuntary. It's more like if someone wants to change mid-year, their IB might be their best and most convenient option.[/quote]
