[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Go to http://www.doe.virginia.gov/statistics_reports/accreditation_ayp_reports/accreditation/index.shtml Scroll down to School Accreditation Ratings. Find your county, listed in alphabetical order. Any school rated about 90 is considered very very good. For example, Waynewood Elementary is rated 95. Bucknell is rated 86. You can't rely on Great Schools and School Digger. You have to find factual data, not parent ratings.[/quote] GS does use SOL scores to compare schools within a state, giving them a 1-10 rating, with 1 being the worst and 10 the best. I pay no attention to the parent ratings, those can get hijacked too easily by an angry parent or two, and some of the ratings are a good 5-6 years old. Also, SOL accreditation is virtually meaningless given that 98% of schools have it. [/quote]
