[quote=Anonymous]You mean white and/or Asian. Don't act like only white schools get ranked well. The lower the FARMs score, the better a school does on tests and the better the school is ranked. What's upsetting is that my school is ranked extremely poorly based on a flawed metric. My school is half middle class/UMC and 1/4 of the school is brand new immigrants who don't speak English (which is harder because of the language issue). Because the poor students and the middle class students' scores are so far apart, my school has a 1/10 equity score. Our overall scores aren't terrible, but the equity score is really tanking it.
