[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP. I’ve had a look at the methodology USNWR goes with and it doesn’t seem relevant to my family. In a nutshell, schools where poor kids score high on state standardized tests rank high. That metric is the linchpin of rankings success. Also, USNWR isn’t tracking teacher or family satisfaction or EC quality. They aren’t penalizing schools for low student or teacher retention over time. What this means is that the phenomena of BASIS losing at least half of the entering 5th grade cohort before HS graduation and a [b]double digit annual teacher exodus have no inpact on the program’s ranking[/b]. Goofy.[/quote] The school publishes metrics for teachers that leave voluntarily. Bolded is made up.[/quote]
