[quote=Anonymous]I guess it depends on your take of NCLB. It was, IMHO, the only good thing Bush 2 did. For the record, our school, Mosby Woods, has 2 aap in 5th and 3 gen Ed. In fact, we have more gen. Ed than aap in every grade. So it is a good indicator for our school. I think SOLs are a great way to measure student success. I also think parents need to take on a more active role in their child's learning and not rely 100% on the schools to educate. The Washington Post had an interesting article on children's learning and successes in the Outlook page yesterday. "What matters more to my kids' future: Their school or my time?". I made the snide comment "too bad" as too many folks think if their school is "wealthier" their kids are better off. Our school's scores and this article show this isn't always so. Peace.[/quote]
