[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As someone who worked in public education in under-resourced schools her entire career, my husband and I are only looking at 9/10 schools on greatschools. Yes, it's a snapshot. I also know how to delve deeper and find out about schools. But what I do know is...some students will do amazing at whatever school they attend. Some students will do poorly at whatever school they attend. But MOST students will do better at schools where the bar is the highest and the resources are the greatest. In under-resourced schools, there are many great teachers, great students, great parents. There are simply too many issues at play to do anything than "teach to the middle" at best. At best. Your bright child will not be pushed beyond the middle. Your struggling child will not be pushed beyond a low-bar just to let him slide by. Who wants that for their children?[/quote] do you feel that a 7 or 8 school falls in the "under-resourced" category?[/quote]
