[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Btw, a GS5 score in NOVA isn’t the same thing as a GS5 in a more rural area. Not that GS means much anyway.[/quote] This is OP. Will you please explain this? I thought the Great Schools ratings were statewide comparisons. So a school that’s a 3 in rural Virginia has roughly the same test scores etc as a school that is a 3 in northern Virginia. Is my understanding incorrect?[/quote] I think it’s a smaller area for comparison. Of course you could just look at the SOL scores and gets direct comparison. Of course you’d have to drill down by cohort.[/quote]
