[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]New ratings are inacurate. It is based off achievement gap between esol and everyone else. .[/quote] That is what they call equity rating, it is not the only rating they use. https://www.greatschools.org/gk/ratings/ See for example Woodson. It gets an equity rating of 4, but an academic rating of 8, and a total rating of 6. Basically by adding an equity rating, it is implicitly adjusting for the fact that Woodson gets great test scores only for certain populations. It is correct that this does disfavor as much all high SES schools, though they may well also get high test scores only because of their demographic mix.[/quote]
