[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is terrible but the truth is to buy into a school with a low FARMS rate. School performance and SES are highly correlated. [/quote] Great Schools rating and FARMS are correlated, but whether that impacts a particular student is questionable. Our ES is a 3 because of Great Schools' equity score. But if you give it any more than a passing glance, you see that white and asian kids are testing at a 9/10 rate and hispanic kids are 1/10. So, if you are not an English learner, the school is working out very well for you.[/quote] Meh. I was talking to a mom new to our school this year. She said at the old school, there would be a new kid once a month or so who didn't speak any English and took up all the teacher's time.. The effect was the whole class suffered. She was thrilled to move. [/quote]
