[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would argue that DCPS' problem with middle school isn't the number of seats, it's that with a few exceptions their schools just aren't very attractive. If they figured out a way to make them attractive those seats would fill. [/quote] They know. But it is hard. The answer is to grow middle and upper class buy in. Most of the time DCPS is just pissing those people off. [/quote] It's getting better people on Capitol Hill have finally realized Stuart Hobson and Jefferson actually work with honors/tracking although many folks still prefer Latin and Basis The biggest problem now is EOTP. There are still no good option for folks. The city needs to replicate the honors/tracking models in at least two of the middle schools in the area to keep higher income folks of all races in DCPS. [/quote] Tracking at Francis Stevens middle school is just letting your kid skip a math grade. It is fine if you don't mind your kid going to class with older kids. Really needs good class room control so the younger kids don't freak out. [/quote]
