[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What about an analysis of middle school 5s like Hardy 6th has 2x ELA 5s as Basis?  Sure some kids read lots at home for fun….[/quote]

Classes at Hardy are twice the size of classes at BASIS in 6th grade (BASIS about 120, Hardy about 200).

It could be as simple as that.[/quote]

Raw numbers don’t help in any type of statistical analysis like this.  You need percents or ratios because of varying sizes.[/quote]

I think you actually need both. 50% where it's 5 kids may be less desirable than 30% where it's 30 kids when it comes to picking a school with a good cohort.[/quote]

For instance, you could have a tiny school like ITDS where the average performance for math is higher, but all kids are stuck in the same math class vs a larger school like SH where the average performance for math is lower, but math is explicitly tracked and there are enough kids for an entire class of advanced kids. For my kid, the latter would be a better set up. [/quote]
