[quote=Anonymous]We're at a school that is a GS 6. When you look at the sub-data, white, Asian, and biracial kids do as well at our school as they do at any other, higher ranked, school. Kids of color do less well, but they do less well everywhere. I wish the kids of color were doing better at our school, but I wish they were doing better all around the county. The specific mix of kids who test well and kids who don't is going to differ between a GS 6 and a GS 8 school, but I'm not convinced it has much to do with the actual education kids are receiving. My children are getting a good education, with really solid teachers, and peers that are well behaved and respectful, if testing kind of poorly due to language and cultural issues. [/quote]
