[quote=Anonymous][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.

MCPS is listing SAT scores for special education kids here. It is capturing all special education kids who do take SAT. If some from Whitman or Churchill don't take it, why difference will be that huge? I am not too familiar with all details and may be missing something here.

I do agree that schools shouldn't be judged by SAT score to start with. [/quote]
