[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just wild. Another failed school and how much money thrown at it??[/quote] I subbed at several schools during the government shutdown and you'd be surprised how may others need to shut down too. I was in a 4th grade class and half of the students could not read or write.[/quote] For this one it's partially that but mainly they're broke. This is a standalone middle school so they don't have any control over the academic level of the kids coming in at 5th grade.[/quote] Unfortunately, being broke impacts academic outcomes. Broke schools can't always invest in curricula, PD, sufficient teachers etc. You can see it in the low accountability score for this school (lowest school in the city) versus other schools that also start at 5th or 6th grade.[/quote]
