[quote=Anonymous]"As a parent you might still prefer to pick a school based on overall achievement but I think that if you are trying to determine school quality actually measuring if teachers get students to improve (grow over an expected year’s growth) deserves points. As an experienced teacher I’ve seen over and over how mediocre teachers and admin can excel at a school where their is less need for them to differentiate or help disadvantaged students and completely fail in a more challenging school environment." Thank you for this. It is very apparent on this thread that very few people have or appreciate this context. It says a lot more about a school and the teachers when they can demonstrate growth for all kids, not just the top. If everybody on here was actually concerned about kids who are grade levels behind, they should value this rating system as well.[/quote]
