[quote=Anonymous]Look beyond the ratings- many poorly rated schools have hired strong leadership and really push academics. Kids can really excel there if they have support at home (that others at the school don't have), and you can find out who the good teachers are and advocate to get them. It is more WORK, to get the experience you want, than it may be at a higher-rated school, but the results can pay off. A friend moved from our low-rated, high FARMS school to a much higher-rated school in the area, and says the kids at our school are reading and writing at a much higher level. [/quote]
