--- Quote ---WASHINGTON, June 15 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- On Saturday, June 16, 2007, HYDE Leadership Public Charter School in Washington, DC (HYDE-DC) will celebrate the graduation of the Class of 2007, of which every senior has been accepted and plans to attend a four-year college or university.

This is a lie just like all the lies at the boarding school re the stats. Why don't YOU "bet on the truth" Hyde? I went to Hyde and there is no way that 98% of the students landed in college. First of all, many in my graduating class never graduated. Hyde did their typical purging of the senior population towards the end of the school year. The sucker parents had to either keep us at Hyde one more year at $40,000 or Johnny gets shipped home and ends up with a GED because Hyde's accredidation is not accepted by many public schools.

The inner quote describes Hyde-DC, the public charter school, so this may not be a fair comparison. From what I've been told, a prerequisite for graduation from the charter school is acceptance into some college. Which means that if you don't succeed in getting in, you don't graduate, and don't screw up their precious statistics. And if you don't graduate, what do you do? You're stuck trying to get your GED, which looks potentially worse on your transcript than graduation from any high school.
I imagine there is a hell of a lot more "prep work" on the part of Hyde with readying students at the charter school for getting into college. And that work probably entails making students apply to places like the Univ. of the District of Columbia, whether they like it or not. UDC has open enrollment, meaning anyone can go; just as long as you graduated from high school or have a GED. That is one of the primary reasons for its existence in the first place.

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.

Note also that Hyde Leadership Public Charter School stats do NOT differ from the other public charter schools in DC!

Now... as far as the boarding school stats go, this makes my blood boil. 'Cuz they've been pulling this bullshit for over 35 fucking years. When they started doing this crap, you tucked your tail between your legs and slunk off in the shadows in shame. You were ostracized from the community and you had no one to compared notes with. Because they made it absolutely and utterly clear that you were one of the very very very few that "failed" to complete your mission, due to your inherently deficient and flawed character.
Of course, THIS WAS COMPLETELY FALSE, but how were we to know back then? Thanks to the Internet, people are now comparing notes. People are realizing just how phony and full of shit those lying gutterdogs really are.

Joe was the one that made me do it. There were some fine kids where, we knew that mom and dad had pretty deep pockets they deserved to get grad gee ate ted but ol' Joe said "get the money" and we tried to hold 'em back. Now to the credit of many yall that we tried to do that to, you said "screw that" and booked. I always liked that word usage "booked" Do youngins still use that? Any way that why I wrote recommendations for some of you. You guys know I did not care about the money. Hell I almost ran the school bankrupt before old Joe run me out. Please don't hate me. I was young and under the influence of Joe.
