[quote=Anonymous]Morning DCUM fam, I've been doing my due diligence in looking at schools for the upcoming lottery selections (so early! I know, but work is boring sometimes and I like to imagine DD having fun at school). I read a lot of posts that say "these test scores need to be taken with a grain of salt" or "there are a lot of low SES, but if you are are smart kid you'll get a good education" or "montessori doesn't teach to the test" or "this school is only good because they teach to the test". It makes sorting through schools difficult! So, maybe people who have experiences at schools with "high" test scores or "low" test scores can chime in on the quality of the education, and why the DC School Report Card is superficial (or maybe its not!) FWIW, I'm in ward 4, Whittier IB. [/quote]
