[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Woodson has slid in the rankings, prioritize great school ratings of 8 or higher for elementaries to avoid low ses [/quote]

But GS rankings don't just focus on academic performance. Not sure what to make of Woodson slide, but we can't afford in the Madison, McLean, and Langley pyramids. We could try Oakton but not sure which elm and middleschool... Advice appreciated.[/quote]

PP is a troll. There’s literally nothing wrong with Woodson. It’s a great school.[/quote]

Their rating of 6/10 for 2022 says otherwise. I remember Woodson used to be an 8/10 a few years ago. Something is going downhill there but I suppose that can be said for a lot of FCPS.[/quote]

I recently told my friend that Woodson was well regarded and to ignore the 6 because if you looked they are being dinged for stupid equity reasons.  I don't support great schools and I also sent US news and niche rankings to her and suggested a more wholistic approach.[/quote]

Great Schools is an abysmal ranking system--not worth looking at--it has no benchmarked system of measurement, its equity measure is hare-brained.  USNews is better.  Even better to just look at the data on the Woodson FCPS profile.  Woodson always has strong SATs, pass rates on standardized measures and college admissions.[/quote]
