When it comes time to calculate the DCPCSB tier ranking after this year's PARCC DCI isnt' going to get an asterisk noting that some students started at xyz feeder or DCPS aren't high-SES.

DCI gets additional financial resources to support its high-needs students. The question to ask is what they are doing with them.

Thanks DC Bilingual!

That's really unfair

Anyone know the breakdown of kids by feeders and not?

I hope that information isn't available. People shouldn't have the opportunity to single out/scapegoat certain feeder schools.

This poor behavior will follow these kids to the workplace and make their futures harder. This is why we're not inclined to go to DCI after LAMB. Sad, really. But, if DCI can't figure out something so simple, what else are they negligent with?

Your premise is ridiculous. The school does filter content and block apps on the school provided chromebooks. But your child's phone is your responsibility. If your child doesn't have the self-control not to use is during class, why one earth would you give your child a smart phone at all? You realize there are phones without data or wifi, don't you? And a myriad of controls you can set if you can't resist buying your kid an expensive iphone. But perhaps you just don't know how to say no? Try parenting.

DCI parents should stop worrying about the tech stuff and ask why the PARCC scores are so low, and what is being done about it.
