[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, this is from FOCUS (the charter advocacy / lobbying group) so it has a point of view. But it has some interesting cuts on the data with a particular eye toward disadvantaged students. http://focusdc.org/sites/focusdc.org/files/FOCUS%20Press%20Release%20Final.pdf Is this a fair analysis? What are they missing or what did they get wrong?[/quote] The most struggling DCPS elementary schools show alarming results. There are dozens of schools where students testing at grade level can be counted on a single hand with fingers to spare. Any charter putting up those metrics would have trouble remaining operational without marked year over year improvement. There's not a huge difference among top charter achievers vs top DCPS achievers but you see different outcomes at the bottom.[/quote]
