[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So, for those of you following, they’ve run the numbers, and Jefferson Houston will be fully accredited next year. [/quote]

the only possible way that could happen - to be fully accredited next year via SOL scores - would be massive cheating.

No. 
It is that the state, as part of it's own revisions to accreditation process as well as the requirements at federal level to revise now that we've ended No Child Left Behind and are under Every Student Succeeds Act.

Can watch meetings describing this.

Such a useful post. Thank you!  We are in this district with a very young child and this is great news. [/quote]

NP here with a 20 month old. We live in the part of Del Ray that is zoned for J-H, even though I drive by Maury twice every single week day. We're also in the income 'donut hole' of too high of a HHI for financial aid at a private, but not quite enough income to justify full price. So I'm fully embracing the fact that we'll be going to J-H. I've heard good things about how they're really trying to turn J-H around, and it's starting to work. I've also started following their facebook and twitter feeds, as well as the PTA facebook page. It's really gone a long way in 'de-stigmatizing' J-H for me and it's fun to see all of the great projects the kids are working on.

Reading these boards can terrify you. But it's just elementary school. If your child comes from a strong, loving and educated family already, they will be just fine. [/quote]
