"I am a six year parent at Hyde Leadership Public Charter School. I have two children attending there and from my experience, Hyde is a very good school. I have seen this school grow over the years and I have also seen it face some challenges. Even with the struggles, I have seen Hyde pull through like a true trooper! I have all intentions of letting my children continue to attend Hyde through 12th grade. The character development of my children and other children that I have had the pleasure of seeing has been nothing short of phenomenal."

I may be wrong, but I do believe there is a 'Karen Johnson' who works at Hyde-DC when last I checked. Perhaps the same name is coincidental; it is not an overly unusual one...

The University of the District of Columbia exercises an open
admissions policy. Proof of high school graduation or satisfactory
completion of the General Educational Development (GED) test
is required for admission.

for admission to the University, it is strongly recommended that
all undergraduates applicants for admission take the test.

Achieving a 100% college acceptance for graduating seniors
when the criteria for acceptance is being a graduating senior
may help explain the remarkable results of the Hyde experience.

And the University of the District of Columbia is among the list noted for destinations of the class of 2007. Pity that they did not break down the numbers as to number of acceptances per institution; perhaps that was not in their best interests.

Don't forget that one of the requirements for graduating Hyde-DC is that you get accepted into a college... Wonder what kind of handshake deal goes on between Univ DC and Hyde-DC?
Perhaps Univ DC is amongst those institutions that Hyde-Bath and Hyde-Woodstock requires graduating seniors to apply to as well... Very interesting find, Surfer Mouse.

Can D.C. Schools Be Fixed?

"The National Assessment of Educational Progress, or NAEP, had been reporting results
by state since 1990, but in recent years began isolating test scores from selected
urban school systems. . .
The test results from NAEP combined students from public and charter schools.
The Post's analysis, separating out the charter results for the first time,
turned up a significant change: D.C. charters had lower scores in both
reading and math in 2003, but they moved slightly past the other public schools
in both subjects in 2005.
This could mean either that charters are able to do more for their students
or that charters are simply drawing the best students from the public schools."

Maryland School for the Deaf's football team remained undefeated on Saturday night, pounding Washington's Hyde School, 44-8.
The Orioles (6-0) beat the Lions with their trademark strong running game and aggressive defense. The game went into running time near the end of the second quarter when MSD built a 35-point lead.
Ryan Bonheyo led the offense, carrying 21 times and rolling up 182 yards with two touchdowns. He did all of his scoring and most of his rushing in the first half.
Bonheyo rushed for 146 yards on 16 carries before intermission and scored on runs of 5 and 20 yards. Both touchdowns came in the first quarter.
Kevin Berrigan also scored a pair of touchdowns for MSD. He had a 3-yard scoring run in the first quarter and later finished the game's scoring on a 7-yard run in the third quarter. That touchdown gave the Orioles a 44-8 lead and sent the game into running time the rest of the way. Berrigan also scored a pair of two-point conversions.
Kaeshaun Wills scored on a 19-yard run in the second quarter and Joseph Solano scored on a 31-yard run in the third quarter. Bonheyo also scored a two-point conversion and Travis Oshman caught a two-point conversion pass from Berrigan.
The Orioles had 312 yards rushing as a team.
MSD's defense held the Lions to minus-45 yards rushing in the first half and minus-53 for the game. The Orioles also intercepted a Hyde pass in the fourth quarter.
What MSD had problems with was penalties. The Orioles were hit with eight penalties totaling 70 yards in the first half and finished the game with 11 penalties for 100 yards.
Hyde avoided a shutout in the first quarter, when Adrian Price returned a short kickoff 60 yards for a touchdown.
