Something is going on at one of D.C.’s Inner City High Schools that no Principal, Administrator, or School Official ever wants to hear about; that students are graduating when they are not supposed too.
Mayor Muriel Bowser and schools chancellor Antwan Wilson said Wednesday that they’re ordering a review of policies, and asking teachers to come forward, after a report alleged that dozens of students at a District high school graduated last year without meeting requirements.
Wilson said that documents provided by a DCPS worker, also says that some 12th-graders couldn’t read or write, and that as of April only 57 of the 164 seniors were on track to graduate in June. All 164 did graduate.
