[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The classes at the schools are basically the same with some small differences- like dance PE and Showtime electives at Kenmore, and more language options at Swanson (I think). Minor differences. The difference in ratings is due to the higher FARMS percentage at Kenmore. This also equates to many more English learners, and these groups score lower on standardized tests. If your kid is a high achiever they will be with the same cohort of kids at either school. If they are one who struggles or is in cotaught classes for an IEP, there will possibly be more behavior issues at Kenmore. But truly, but the house you prefer for your family! Or focus more on high school options, which are also good at all 3 APS neighborhood high schools.[/quote] No, more language options are at TJ, and from 6th (IB program). [/quote]
