DC High School Graduation Rate To Plummet From 73% To 42% After Massive Fraud Revealed

ewer high school seniors in the District are expected to receive diplomas in June than in the year before, a sharp reversal for a school system that had celebrated a 20-point increase in its graduation rate since 2011.
Data released Thursday by D.C. Public Schools shows that 42 percent of seniors attending traditional public schools are on track to graduate, while 19 percent are considered “moderately off-track,” meaning they could still earn enough credits for a diploma.
The likely drop in the graduation rate is the latest fallout from an investigation that cast doubt on the validity of diplomas awarded last year. The graduation rate in 2017 was 73 percent, but the probe revealed that one in three graduates received their diplomas in violation of city policy. Those students had walked across graduation stages despite missing too many classes or improperly taking makeup classes.
Embarrassing

If course it’s that bad.
What a fricking tragedy it’s allowed to get this bad.
Can’t discipline the kids, parents won’t, so what the hell do you expect will happen.

More of the policy of the human trash known as progressives, leftists, communists, neofilth.
If we just give them things then they'll succeed!

Probably why they chased Rhee out of there.
She wasn't going to let them keep cooking the books.

DC is a shithole.
It’s worse than downtown Memphis.

Public schools like that are so shitty and know it that they have to rig the system to even look somewhat decent. Yet they still have the gall to rail against school choice. These same assholes are the ones who flipped out over the Devos nomination, when THEY are the ones doing a massive disservice to kids.

The massive wink and nod agreement on the left to basically just lie to black people has done nothing but harm them.
Two years ago, it was a huge deal here in Bama that some female valedictorian from a mostly black school couldn't get accepted to the major state schools. Of course, the stupid AL.com people thought it was some affront but she'd taken the ACT 3 times and her best score was a 17.
She said, "all her life, she'd been the smartest in her classes and now they're telling her she's not smart enough".
I'm like......yes young lady. They lied their asses off to you to make themselves feel better. And, they did such a good job of it that even now, you can't accept you were lied to. So, it's got to be racism.

The funding argument has always been crap. Schools will always fail or succeed based on the quality of parenting going on at home.
