[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I believe both Ludlow and JO Wilson have high test scores and serious racial diversity in the preschool and preK classes. [/quote] Ludlow-Taylor has the best test scores of any school on the Hill. The closest second is Watkins, and they're literally 20 percentage points behind in both English and Math. It's amazing considering the school is almost 90% FARMS (free and reduced priced meals). Unfortunately, the school is not diverse: 94% AA, less than 1% White. [/quote] Why do you think the scores are so much higher and there are more FARMS? Teacher quality? Supplemental instruction? Involved parents?[/quote] My inclination is to say it's the principal, the amazing turnaround has all been since 2008. However, to be fair, there are differing opinions on this: http://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/96108.page[/quote]
