[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’d also point out (something everyone hates) that for some reason independent of class, Black students do much worse on testing. The demographics of SWW vs BBHS: 23% black vs 69% an actual multiple of 3.

So view school outcomes with that lens as well.[/quote]

What is this supposed to mean? Spell it out clearly because this is gross.

I think this thread has gone way off track. Why dont we start measuring the heads of students too, I mean since were headed down that path.[/quote]

I pointed this out and hate to do so. Look it up. The variance in outcomes is real. Making stereotyping assumptions about WHY is problematic and I DO NOT WANT IT TO BE TRUE but pointing it out in a context of comparing apples to apples between schools with very different demographics where demographics are tied to testing outcomes is important. The teaching quality is not an independent variable you are able to isolate from things tests show us about the population being taught.

And yes the thread is losing relevance. Just don’t come at Banneker like they “do a bad job” or praise SWW assuming they teach better there.
