[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To 22:12 - if the DCPCSB does not believe their tiering is apples to apples then why are they tiering? Th y very much promote their tiering and make sweeping statements about it. Where are you getting your information that says something different?[/quote] The tiers are really wide bands. My point is that 'ranking' within the #1s and #2s is rather silly. Depending on the school's state of development and grades different measures are used; e.g. a newer high school with no graduates yet isn't be measured on graduation and/or college acceptance. So comparing them to the high schools that have graduates is of limited utility, but each measure within the ranking is still useful / interesting and worth watching for year over year trends. Also if you dislike the tiers, you are gonna HATE the new star ratings that are coming out for ALL DC schools from OSSE soon.[/quote]
