[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's true the rankings for MCPS schools is a reflection of the county's changing demographics.[/quote] No, it's because of changing criteria, mainly chronic absenteeism. It affects every school district in MD. Last year there were 215 5-star schools statewide compared to just 85 this year. https://wtop.com/education/2023/12/fewer-md-schools-at-five-star-status-in-states-report-card/ [quote] One [b]main reason for the difference stems from absenteeism[/b], a measure in the rating system that wasn’t used two years ago because of chronic absenteeism related to the COVID-19 pandemic[/quote][/quote]
