[quote=Anonymous]My DCs do not attend public, but I did a lot of research on districts before settling in Westchester. Public school rankings are based on test scores. The fallacy around public school rankings is that some schools have economic diversity or a population of ESL students that bring down test scores. Thus, those schools score lower, without accounting for the quality of the teaching or how well resourced the district is. Greenwich, specifically, has an Advanced Learning Program in elementary and middle school. It's a well resourced district by every measure. Darien, New Canaan and Westport are more uniformly wealthy and thus the scores reflect that. A student can receive an excellent education and EC's in any of these districts.[/quote]
