[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]These lists just measure a school's overall affluence. It has little to do with the quality of education.[/b] [/quote] Thank you. It is the W schools and the highly selective magnet programs that are bolstering up the numbers. Other schools are a perfect storm of inexperienced teachers, more FARMS and ESOL students, terrible curriculum and no textbooks. [/quote] With few exceptions nationwide, affluence determines scores/ratings. When I lived in wealthy NE town with a tiny school system, there was no gap...because it was totally (economically) segregated. They were not performing miracles. There was no secret method that MCPS is just not adapting. They had not solved the gap. There just was no gap.[/quote]
