In schools in DC, poor kids are left behind the rich kids. There was a large gap found in testing when the students were examined and what was found is that the poorer kids are getting worse grades. The school system is not optimized for them and there is an issue with how they are taught that needs to be addressed. Many charter schools that are in the city have figured this out and gotten better.
DCPS should learn from the charter sector and replace its failing schools with school operators and models that have succeeded with similar students — whether in district or charter schools.
Key Takeaways:
1
There is a large gap in reading between poor kids and richer ones in DC schools.
2
DCPS has gotten better, but does not know how to educate their poorest.
3
Charter schools have been doing better with their students in grade differences.
