[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]GS has LAMB (who has kids preform worse than state average for both white and Hispanic) as a 10 and ITDS as a 2. I don't have a kid at either but attended ITDS 6 years ago. This tells me everything I need to know about GS. [/quote]

LAMB at a 10/10 does seem a little wild. Not saying it is a bad school but when you look at the metrics.. what did they do to deserve a 10?

GS is absolute trash.  [/quote]

I think the LAMB one is wrong. They don't have a test score overall number like other schools and then they get a 10/10 for equity because "Underserved students at this school are performing far better than other students in the state, and this school is successfully closing the achievement gap." But then when you look at the Race/Equity data they provide, it shows Hispanic students are below the state average (as are white scores). It makes zero sense. I acutally wonder if despite showing the correct graphic here, they actually compared the scores to overall non-white scores in math and then you "win" GS by having non-AA non-white students because there is such a large acheivement gap for AA math scores especially.[/quote]
