[quote=Anonymous]Be careful, OP. Last year's safety schools are probably much less safe now. It really can change quite a bit in a year if there is a change in leadership or if it's on the cusp of being considered acceptable. If a few families give it a chance and they are pleased with it, you can expect an influx of kids. They will still leave by 1st grade, but the school will be fine for preschool and will gradually make progress until it hits the Wall of No Middle School Options in 3rd-4th-5th. You can look at some of last year's data here: https://public.tableau.com/profile/ceyde#!/vizhome/FINALYr2R1ResultsDashboards_3-31-15/CountsDashboard This is just Round 1 data so it doesn't reflect waitlist movement over the summer, which at safety schools may be considerable. I think any school that had more than 50% OOB students is a school you could consider safe this year. [/quote]
