[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child was at a gs5 school and it was horrible. We moved to a school with a 9 rating and it was good, not perfect, but very good. Now we are at a school rated 7 and we like it better than the 9 school. I think it just depends, but I don't think I'd choose a school with a rating of 3, there must be a lot of problems throughout the whole school for it to have such a low score.[/quote] I'm the one who posted about being at a high-FARMS school that was really good. They get low scores because there are language issues so they don't test well, not because the school is bad. That was our experience.[/quote] I'm the pp you responded to. At our school that wasn't the issue. There were barely any ELL students and the school was more than 70% white. There wasn't a very good community at the school. I was one of the PTA moms and I volunteered at nearly every event with the same other moms. There were about 10 of us, but only about 5 of us always volunteered. We tried really hard to make a good community at the school and I made some nice friends with the moms, but I wanted a better school for my son. He wasn't happy there and hated school. He is really starting to like it right now at the 7 school.[/quote]
