[quote=Anonymous]SES = socioeconomic status. Basically, the single most important factor explaining children's test scores is the affluence and education level of their parents. So if a school has low test scores, is it because the children have poor, uneducated parents, or because the teaching is lousy, or both? If a school has high test scores, is it because the children have affluent, educated parents, or because the teaching is good, or both? Within Montgomery County, as the PP said, the variations among MCPS schools are mostly due to the affluence/education of the parents, not due to differences in teaching.[/quote]
