[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's up with this garbage about lyles crouchs traditional model that someone writes in every discussion. The reason that the school preforms so high is because there in NO diversity. It is a neighborhood school filled with children who live in million dollar homes in Old Town. That's the secret to the school's success. Rich children with involved families = good scores. It has nothing to do with thier traditional model or curriculum.[/quote] Maybe you're right, but Lyles Crouch is the only school in ACPS that uses the Core Knowledge curriculum, which is proven to teach kids math and reading far better than balanced literacy and whatever math garbage the rest of ACPS uses. Their test scores reflect that. I guess ACPS is finally moving towards a better reading curriculum now, but not after failing to teach an entire generation of kids how to read and write. I understand that the Lyles Crouch principal actively fought to use Core Knowledge, and is kind of hated by ACPS central office because of it.[/quote]
