[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You're right. RM is #96. I know... people will say it's because of the IB. Well, you can an also say the W schools do well because a lot of the kids there come from high SES families that can afford tutors, prep classes, enrichment, etc.. [/quote] Yes, but the difference is that whatever the reason for the W students doing well, if you move to those clusters your kid gets to be with those students. If you move to RM, your kid doesn't get to be in the IB program (putting aside the 11th grade preference), which is why people always want to distinguish. I say this as someone living in the RM cluster btw - the IB program masks the performance of the overall school since they don't report the two "subparts" of the school separately. [/quote]
