[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son currently goes to Sherwood Elementary and his brother will attend in a few years.  They will then move on to William Farquhar middle.  I have been told that these are both great schools.  We are considering moving, which would change them to Sequoyah Elementary, Redland middle, and Magruder High.  I don't know much about the latter two schools and everyone I ask doesn't seem to have much to offer.  I was wondering if anyone had any input? It would be greatly appreciated[/quote]

same feeder as your kids -from SES to Farquhar

Our feeders to Sherwood are solid schools - good community support.   Sequoia is a good school, but it's having some transitional issues b/c of rezoning. I don't think the community is used to an increase in FARMs.

It's difficult to rezone in our cluster, as there's nothing much else around.  A tiny part of Farquhar is in the NEC, and they complain about not having Sherwood High as their home school.  Years ago, Sherwood opted out of the NEC, which was a wise move in my opinion.

You could check schools at a glance.  Many rely on it b/c it includes data.  So people can compare.  There's a big difference in dropout rates , for example, and with  FARMs numbers.
