[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Looks like this year Shepherd has enough white kids to report their PARCC results--94 in both reading and math, so comparable to WOTP schools.

Just picking a couple of WOTP schools at random, Janney's white students' scores are 90/86, and Lafeyette's are 86/90.

However, Shepherd's black and Hispanic students scores are far lower, which suggests there is room for improvement there--54/50 for black students, and 40/30 for Hispanic students.

In comparison, I looked at Lafayette's black student scores--48/54, and Janney, 59/45.  Doesn't look like any of these schools are doing amazingly with black students.

Interestingly, Lafayette's Hispanic scores are pretty high--89/75.  Ditto for Lafayette, 86/68.

I'd be interested to see what elementary schools have the highest PARCC scores for black and Latino students..  [/quote]

Great job Shepherd. [b]It’s important to note that with Shepherd, 25% of their population (likely minority) are low income so not exactly apples to apples. [/b]What’s even more impressive to me is [b]the scores between at risk and not at risk are very close 50/50 vs 60/56. [/b]Compare that with Lafayette (32/47 vs 82/84) and Murch (Janney didn’t have enough at risk) of (38/23 vs 76/76).[/quote]

PP here, and yes, both of these are important points--considering the more varied SES of Shepherd's students when looking at test scores, and the data indicating that at-risk students are being served relatively well, judging by the close margin between at-risk/not at-risk scores.[/quote]
