[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No one said the Baltimore City system was great. What was stated was that two schools in particular were good Roland Park and Mt. Washington. As far as I can see no one claimed these schools were better than county or private schools. What was claimed is that academically inclined students from these schools with good parents would go on to be similarly as successful as students from county and privates. For whatever reason everyone wants to skirt around this issue. Does anyone know an example of a kid or kids who went to either of the two schools and did not get accepted into a good college? No one has spoken to this yet.

"it isn't accurate to claim most higher SES families who live in Baltimore city are willing to do so" PLEASE POINT OUT WHO SAID THIS? NO ONE MADE THAT CLAIM. This thread is not even about the system, it's about the two schools being referenced.

Most families who live in RP and Mt. Washington who have a high SES don't bother with the public schools, or only use them for elementary.  I thought that was clear from my original post.   As I'm sure your are aware, there is no RP or Mt. Washington high school, so not sure where you are going with that.  And the number of students from this communities who go all the way through the city public school system is ridiculously small, so your question about whether they wind up the same college can't really be answered.[/quote]
