[quote=Anonymous]Comparing special education programs isn't as simple as simply comparing scores. Whitman, for example, has a number of students in LFI and SCB who take alternative assessments, but are counted in those numbers, whereas Churchill has a number of students in the Autism program and the Bridge program who have substantial difficulties (as demonstrated by the fact that they're bused to a school specifically for the special ed program), and yet are still expected to take the same assessment as students without disabilities. BCC doesn't have programs in either categories. I'm not saying that Churchill is good. I don't have a lot of experience with it, just that you can't judge a school's special education program simply by test scores because kids are so different from each other.[/quote]
