[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many parents, myself included, believe the claims in this petition are based on incomplete information. Further, using an anonymous petition to document concerns is a simply not a constructive way to promote dialogue in a school community. Sela is very unique in its commitment to being diverse by design. It has stable leadership - which is so rare in DC. And it is a remarkably high-performing school for its composition. I hope people reading this thread are aware that it represents a minority of parents who have chosen to take an approach of an anonymous letter rather than collaborative dialogue. [/quote]

Why do you think it's remarkably high-performing? Please explain the growth scores.[/quote]

DP. I don't have a stake in Sela, but why do you think growth is the only marker of success?

My guess is what you're seeing here is a bunch of kids who are scoring high and don't have room to grow, a bunch of kids who are scoring low and are aren't improving much, and not much in the middle. That's not ideal but it's also not indicative of worsening performance over time.[/quote]
