[quote=Anonymous]Teacher here. I worked in a high poverty FCPS school and moved on like OP. She's so, so right. The entire system in terms of measuring what is a "good" school are ridiculous. I worked in a school where white kids actually scored higher than many of the other schools that are often recommended. As a former high school teacher, I can see where the divide falls and it's not nonsense. In terms of elementary and primary (where I have also taught), it's more shocking. We can do so, so much more for these kids, but the county is more focused on compliance than actual learning (hence ELD). OP is right in a lot of ways, fwiw. It is almost a sabbatical teaching in a high performing FCPS school. OP, girl, enjoy the break.[/quote]
