[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And where RM? Looks like they are slacking way off. Property values plummet more :([/quote] Where is RM? Look at the selection criteria. When "soft" selection criteria are used (e.g., retention rate, graduation rate, sub meals..etc), you will not see RM because SES of many RM students compare to W schools and PHS (most of PHS kids are from out of Poolesville area, upper middle class families). When you use "hard" measures (e.g., Wash Post Challenge Index, number of national merit scholars...etc), you will see RM bubble up to the top due to their high performing IB manget program. Compare WP ranking vs this one. It's kind interesting to see how schools rank based on different methodology. [/quote]
