[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a CMI parent who posted much earlier, before this thread deteriorated.  Thank you CMI parent for trying to inject facts here.

I will say that pretty much all of the CMI parents I know, from every economic/racial background imaginable, feels extremely lucky to be at this school and is generally happy with the academics.  People have minor issues, but the school is very responsive, and we have a robust PTA that advocates well for the parents.   None of us are thrilled about the PARCC scores, but we understand that [b]the top grade is small which skews the numbers[/b].  We expect those scores to improve significantly over the next couple of years.

Some people on this thread have a problem with the school.  And that's fine.  You can choose not to go.  :)[/quote]

A small sample size can increase variability, but it doesn't skew numbers.  It could just as easily be too high as too low.  Unless you're saying that the top grade is filled with lower achievers...[/quote]
