[quote=Anonymous]Times do change. Problem is, DCPS middle schools don't change as much, or as fast, as most of us in the neighborhood would like. We've been waiting for honors classes in science and social studies to arrive at our neighborhood middle school--Stuart Hobson--since honors English and math classes were created there more than 10 years ago. Admins have told us that no such classes are planned, because "placement would be a problem since the PARCC doesn't test these subjects." Such crap. Half the kids in the school still don't test proficient. Our student has seldom been challenged or pushed at his (heavily gentrified) DCPS ES school in the upper grades. Pretty clearly, more of the same is in store if we go with a DCPS MS. Just not worth it.[/quote]
