[quote=Anonymous]I am guessing your kid got a 4 in math and a 5 in reading. If your kid is in-bounds for Eastern (my guess), 25% of the kids got a 4 or 5 in ELA; 7% got a 5. That doesn't strike me as too few kids to have a reasonable cohort. JR doesn't teach writing particularly well either, so if your kid isn't a strong writer you'd want to supplement that in either school. Math is harder: only 2% of kids at Eastern got a 4 or 5. There will definitely be a bigger cohort of kids on grade level at JR, SWW, Banneker, McKinley Tech, etc. I think you would want to have someone outside the school evaluate your kid and make sure he stays on grade level not just by Eastern's standards, but able to do well on ACT, SAT, IB exams, etc. If your kid is motivated, a tutor is certainly cheaper than moving! And if your kid is not motivated, he'd probably fall through the cracks at JR too. This info is from https://dcschoolreportcard.org/schools/1-0457/student-achievement[/quote]
