[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Walls says that the "ideal" student is independent and self advocates. I'm guessing that what carries the most weight in this process is actually the parent interview. They can easily tell within two minutes the helicopter/snow plow parents that are likely to email the administration/teacher every time their kid gets a B. Guessing from the comments here, sounds like they did a good job weeding those out! [/quote] If true, they violated their own policy. At least last year they said that parent interview was only used to answer parents' questions and would not be used in rankings. For the record, the one question I asked during the interview was to the students. I asked what their favorite thing about Walls was. If that raised red flags, I'd love to know why.[/quote]
