Test scores seem to be slightly below Ross and Eaton, maybe on par with or slightly higher than Stoddert. Should we be concerned that it's 60% OOB? Does anyone have some insight into the school? Thanks.
Ross actually has the highest test scores in the city. Higher than Janney, Lafayette and Mann.
This is, at best, marginally true.
For the last two years, of Janney, Mann and Ross, Ross had the highest percentage of (Proficient or Advanced) in reading. Before the last two years, Mann had higher percentages than the others. In math, Mann has been and remains the highest percentage of (Proficient or Advanced).
I'm not trying to denigrate Ross at all. It appears to be a very good school. (I don't know anything about it personally.) But you made a quantitative statement and quantitative statements need to be based entirely on the data.
