[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]VA and CA have identical average 8th grade math scores for public school students above the FRPL cutoff (which is an imperfect way to get apples to apples but helps a little). [/quote] Not really a good comparison. FCPS is a whole lot better than the majority of the school districts in VA. Likewise, there are more affluent school districts in CA that score better. Apples to apples -- you want to compare FCPS to a like SES/demographic school district in the Bay Area. You can't compare by size because most of the school districts in the Bay Area are small, town/city based. FCPS allows students to take Alg in 7th grade. I don't think a lot of CA schools allow that now.[/quote]
