[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is it or is it not a good school? [/quote]
Some people seem to imply it would be better without kids being bused in from half way across the county.  :roll: [/quote]

It would have higher test scores if not for FARMS kids from (checks notes) 3.5 miles away.its still a nice school.
For the record, Captain Equity Crusader, the kids are not bussed to Rachel Carson because 'they're almost zoned there and will go to QO anyway'
They're bussed there from a leftover idea that integrating students with bussing will lead to a better academic outcome for them. Test scores show thats just not true. Those kids do poorly because they come from families that don't value education. The money spent on bussing and boundary studies would be better spent on programs educating the parents on why academics matter.  And then training them how to do stuff like go to the library and read to their children. But that might hurt someone's feelings and then Captain Equity Crusader wouldn't know what to get his panties in a bunch about.

And to clear it up, if anything brings the school down, its the mean girls not the non local farms kids. But I am explaining what the OP would see if they look at the metrics for the school. [/quote]

Remember when dcum claimed we had to go back to in person education because they care so deeply about educational outcomes for poor students?! Yup. Another lie.[/quote]
