[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone think leadership have something to do with the widening gap between Takoma and Whittier in terms of test scores? Whittier has improved drastically over the past few years, while Takoma has pretty much stagnated. Demographics are pretty similar.[/quote] Whittier has always had better neighborhood buy-in and they have a more cohesive admin, for sure. But Takoma has about 10% *higher* ELL which definitely impacts proficiency scores. Both schools are on an upward trajectory, but I think Whittier is a couple of steps ahead academically. A couple of yards behind facility-wise, unfortunately, and I hope they don't lose momentum when they move to the swing space.[/quote] Sorry, fixed my typo which significantly changes the comment. D'oh.[/quote]
