Can she get the schools back on track?

Were DC public schools ever "on track?"

The only thing that can save students in DCPS is if the Federal government were to impose mandatory school choice for all students in the system.

Back in the 50's DC public schools were as strong as any in the nation. Of course, that was back when Congress ran the district, before the 'white flight,' the riots of the late 60's, and the generational welfare system.
