[quote=Anonymous]Where did you get the statistics for these ELA and Math scores? Link, please.
Yours was a helpful post. Thank you.

--------------------------------

Percentages without taking into account peer to peer still is looking at raw data. You have to compare peer to peer. PP is correct that Ross seems to do better in almost every category than most schools. They seem to deserve their #1 ranking. However, I do still wonder why other WOTP or majority white schools rank higher than Shepherd, some HRCS, or Eaton.

Shepherd 
percentage of white students with 4 or higher in ELA 94.1%
percentage of white students with 4 or higher in Math 94.1%
percentage of black students with 4 or higher in ELA 54%
percentage of black students with 4 or higher in Math 50%

Ross 
percentage of white students with 4 or higher in ELA 100% (better than Shepherd)
percentage of white students with 4 or higher in Math 92.3% (worse than Shepherd)
percentage of black students with 4 or higher in ELA 88.9% (better than Shepherd)
percentage of black students with 4 or higher in Math 66.7% (better than Shepherd)

Janney 
percentage of white students with 4 or higher in ELA 90.1% (worse than Shepherd)
percentage of white students with 4 or higher in Math 85.8% (worse than Shepherd)
percentage of black students with 4 or higher in ELA 59.1% (better than Shepherd)
percentage of black students with 4 or higher in Math 45.5% (worse than Shepherd)

Lafayette
percentage of white students with 4 or higher in ELA 85.6% (worse than Shepherd)
percentage of white students with 4 or higher in Math 89.8% (worse than Shepherd)
percentage of black students with 4 or higher in ELA 48.1% (worse than Shepherd)
percentage of black students with 4 or higher in Math 53.8% (better than Shepherd)

Maury
percentage of white students with 4 or higher in ELA 92.9% (worse than Shepherd)
percentage of white students with 4 or higher in Math 95.7% (better than Shepherd)
percentage of black students with 4 or higher in ELA 46.3% (worse than Shepherd)
percentage of black students with 4 or higher in Math 39% (worse than Shepherd)

Stoddert
percentage of white students with 4 or higher in ELA 83.9% (worse than Shepherd)
percentage of white students with 4 or higher in Math 93.5% (worse than Shepherd)
percentage of black students with 4 or higher in ELA 45% (worse than Shepherd)
percentage of black students with 4 or higher in Math 55% (worse than Shepherd)

Key
percentage of white students with 4 or higher in ELA 81.3% (worse than Shepherd)
percentage of white students with 4 or higher in Math 90.6% (worse than Shepherd)
percentage of black students with 4 or higher in ELA 63.0% (better than Shepherd)
percentage of black students with 4 or higher in Math 44.4% (worse than Shepherd)

Eaton
percentage of white students with 4 or higher in ELA 90.4% (worse than Shepherd)
percentage of white students with 4 or higher in Math 91.5% (worse than Shepherd)
percentage of black students with 4 or higher in ELA 51% (worse than Shepherd)
percentage of black students with 4 or higher in Math 37.5% (worse than Shepherd)

Mann
percentage of white students with 4 or higher in ELA 84.5% (worse than Shepherd)
percentage of white students with 4 or higher in Math 78.4% (worse than Shepherd)
percentage of black students with 4 or higher in ELA 60% (better than Shepherd)
percentage of black students with 4 or higher in Math 45% (worse than Shepherd)

Hyde Addision
percentage of white students with 4 or higher in ELA 79.2% (worse than Shepherd)
percentage of white students with 4 or higher in Math 91.7% (worse than Shepherd)
percentage of black students with 4 or higher in ELA 53.8% (worse than Shepherd)
percentage of black students with 4 or higher in Math 50.8% (better than Shepherd)

Brent
percentage of white students with 4 or higher in ELA 85.7% (worse than Shepherd)
percentage of white students with 4 or higher in Math 86.9% (worse than Shepherd)
percentage of black students with 4 or higher in ELA 46.4% (worse than Shepherd)
percentage of black students with 4 or higher in Math 32.1% (worse than Shepherd)

So I do wonder if this new report is simply a reward for the whitest schools being that I don't count a single school other than Ross that outperforms Shepherd based on peer to peer comparison.[/quote]
