[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]NP -- OP didn't ask if there is a school where no one supplements. There is no chance that such a school exists in the greater DC area. LOL. And that is fine-- parents' prerogative. But OP wants to know if it is possible to go to a DCPS school and have your child achieve an advanced track without the need to supplement. It is. We don't supplement either. No need to. Kids scored 5s on PARCC and are in the advanced track at Deal with no extra supplements or tutors. [/b]

Yes!  this is the question.  It sounds like there are places in DCPS where it is possible to achieve an advanced track without the need to supplement.  Great!  Wonderful!  I'd like to go to these open houses.  Can people please start identifying these schools?  Thanks.[/quote]

Murch and Deal for us.[/quote]

Start identifying these DCPS schools?  Please, it's a no brainer for anybody who's been in the city more than a month in Upper NW.  The school are in Upper NW or on Cap Hill, the ones with the highest percentages of white and high SES families.  Just look on the DCPS School Profile pages to find them.  You set your own "floor" cut-off for high SES and white.  So the group includes Janney, Lafayette, Ken, Murch, Man, Stoddert, maybe Hearst, Eaton, Shepherd and Brent for ES, and Deal and Wilson post ES.

Bravo - your list is lame -- you left out Ross, the top achieving DCPS ES in the entire city[/quote]

That's why you think it's lame??  How about because of "You set your own "floor" cut-off for high SES and white." and then don't look at a school like Banneker.  That is lame.[/quote]

:roll:  oh please! you could add Walls to that list just as easily.  It was mostly ES.  There are plenty of other really good ES omitted too[/quote]
