[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another thing that will shock the posters who claim schools like Rachel Carson and QO are terrible: Both schools score the same or better on every category as schools this forum loves (I used Burning Tree ES and Whitman as comparisons).

I am not saying QO is terrible. But "achieving same or better on every category" using the report provided in the OP?

You do understand that this report is designed not to look at the overall "performance" of a school, but rather how "each group" is doing?

Even if you have a school A, in which all groups are doing better than those same groups in school B, it does not mean school A is doing better (just for performance purposes) than B.

DP..."you're only as strong as your weakest link".

IMO, a "good" school is one where low income students do well.  A school with a high score that is full of wealthy kids tells you nothing about the teachers, admin, etc.., whereas a school where the lower income kids do well should tell you how great the teachers/admin are and the school environment in terms of fostering learning.[/quote]

If you want to define a "good" school, that is fine.

The previous poster was clearly talking about performance data. I was simply showing him that the report quoted in OP does not provide the overall performance data. You can have a school in which all subgroups perform better, but overall it does not.

Whether that performance data (score) means anything - I don't want to be dragged into that for now.
