[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FWIW, here are the percentages of white students at Jefferson, Stuart-Hobson, Eliot-Hine and Deal who met or exceeded expectations on the latest PARCC:

Jefferson: 100% ELA, 90.9% math

Stuart-Hobson: 92.7% ELA, 72.2% math

Eliot-Hine: 85.7% ELA, 85.7% math

Deal: 94.6% ELA, 80.8% math

Please, sample sizes aren't large enough for Eliot-Hine, Jefferson or Stuart Hobson to tell us much, other than that a small number of high SES/white families are now using these schools.  There are, what, two dozen white students at both EH and Jefferson, and no more than 60 at SH.  Contrast those numbers to 650-700 white students at Deal. [/quote]

I also think the families willing to roll the dice on EH and Jefferson are likely families with kids who “will do well anywhere.”[/quote]

that's why this whole conversation is pointless high SES people will do well anywhere.  And hint going to Eastern and being at the top of the class is a better chance at top schools than going to any private or moving to the burbs.... mind blown.[/quote]

This is not true. Top colleges want to make sure you are well prepared academically. You see the best college admissions results from Banneker, Wilson and Walls. The other schools sometimes have a few kids do very well in top college admissions but it is much less common. [/quote]
