[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You might want to look at MCPS's own data dashboard: https://montgomeryschoolsmd.org/data/LAR-charts/Evidence-of-Learning-Grade5.html#EOLGrade5DD Also, Piney Branch just got a new principal.[/quote] PBES's principal was widely regarded as one of the best in the county, and was tapped to open a new school. I don't think she is the issue. If I had to guess based on my child's experience at PBES - white middle class parents are VERY vocal about demanding differentiation and de facto segregation (hence PBES getting two CES local classrooms before most schools got one). The obvious downside is that kids of color and poor/working class kids are not served as well as they could be if the parent body wanted to see every kid succeed. [/quote]
