[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Special Eduction can mean anything from really mild to very severe. I would assume it is more because parents in that area can afford the expensive SN privates that typically run $40-70K, that many of us would love to send our kids to but cannot afford. [/quote] May be true, but then how come Whitman special education kids have a drastically higher score than Churchill? [/quote] Because the special programs that pull kids to Whitman (SCB and LFI) have kids who don't take the SAT, whereas the special programs that pull kids to Churchill (Bridge in particular) do have kids who take the SAT. If you gave every kid with an IEP at Whitman and Churchill the SAT, and compared the results, it would tell a different story. One of the things that using SAT, AP, ACT, or IB scores to judge a school does is that it discourages the school from having those schools take those tests. [/quote]
