[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The white kids at Wakefield and the non-poor kids (of any race) are doing quite well on SOL tests compared to students across the state. Their pass rates put them in an "8" out of "10" -- that's as good as many of the high schools in FCPS (for the same groups). The education is available at Wakefield -- unfortunately, the school population is heavy on poor kids and minority kids --- and it's a matter of simple statistics that the overall test scores averages for the school are being dragged down. But, it seems that some of the kids at this school ARE in fact learning. I couldn't find Wakefield's SAT scores broken out by race, but I'm sure it reflects the same thing.
