[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The issue with the groups, sad to say, is that the higher the IB the better performing the school is. The higher the OOB to IB ratio, the lower ranking the school appears.[/quote] With a lot of exceptions. EHHS have a lot of OOB and still have great performance. [/quote] But measurably below the JKLM tier.[/quote] What is this JKLM tier you speak of? Seriously though, what measurements are you using? Only test scores? Not taking into account FARM, IB status (Shepherd), or other measures of what many consider a great school? One cannot say that Janney or Mann is the best school because the demographics are apples to oranges. If 99% of the students comes from a family with $250k+ HHI and master degrees that doesn't mean that my student that also comes from family of $250k+ and phd that attends Hearst won't get the same education and arguably a better experience to be surrounded by more diversity. [/quote] If you don't mind your child's education is held back or disrupted by the fact that a large percentage of his or her classmates are below grade level and a number bring discipline issues to school everyday, then hey, go for it.[/quote] How do you know that there are discipline issues? This is the exact reason people don't want to associate with J anymore. So because Hearst, Eaton, Hyde or Shepherd have more brown kids, that means there are bound to be discipline issues. Got it. Thanks[/quote]
