[quote=Anonymous]The HFA program at Tilden is for students from all over the county who are placed there by the county - your current school would need to advocate and agree that is the most appropriate setting for your child. You cannot get into that program just by living in the zoned area. And you cannot simply register for a school that is not your assigned school (there is a process called COSA - change of student assignment - where you can make a case for attending a school other than your assigned one. You need a strong reason but your COSA request will not be approved if it is based on what you believe is the better school for your child). As for great schools ratings, they are largely based on the statewide PARCC exams. Success on these exams is strongly correlated with the economic situation of the students who take them -- so you can look at Great Schools, or you can simply choose the wealthiest parts of the county.
