This article tells about 7 students from DCPS who earned Gates Millenium Scholarships. It includes a brief update on Isiah West, the student featured in the story "A New Ballou." Go kids go!
Look at the new Ezra Klein here! I can't keep up with all these posts! I think you need to take over the reigns for the DC Education Blog (http://www.dcedublog.com/) which is seldom updated.
I see that one of the Gates Scholars is an alum of Jeff's high school. Also, Gates runs another scholarship, the DC Achievers. It is not as prestigious but pays for hundreds of DC students to go to college.
