[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]ATS also only has 7.65% students with disabilities, the county average is 14.37%. That also helps juice the test scores. [/quote] Yet if you look at the SOL scores for those students, they outperform SN kids at other schools. Also, and this will surprise you, ATS provides interventions early and often thereby remediating some early differences so they don't become "SN" kids. It's amazing.[/quote] This. So many schools “wait and see” With kids which is really just waiting to fail. But a lot of specific Learning disabilities can be addressed with early intervention. We know now that structured literacy benefits all kids but is really necessary for those who struggle to read. So it makes sense that a school that stresses that from day one simply ends up testing fewer Kids.[/quote]
