[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You wanted a test in high school -- and many others simply wanted a more challenging neighborhood/comprehensive high school. There are 5 application schools in DCPS already -- they weren't going to create another one in a comprehensive high school. DCPS provided rigorous programming at a beautifully renovated neighborhood school. But the high-SES parents fled to an office building downtown and a school miles away that didn't have a gym for 11 years (better facilities?). No. [/quote] Rigorous programming? Come on, Eastern can't attract the high-performing students to support rigorous programming. Rather than blame the high SES/white parents for fleeing, why not figure out why they fled and, by extension, what it would take to induce them to stay in neighborhood schools for both MS and HS? Where does the blame get the community? Who's winning your silly blame game? [/quote]
