[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These rankings make no sense to me. A big part of the ranking depends on the state assessment test -- but VA, MD, and DC all use different assessments, and I have no way of seeing if one state is using an easier assessment than another. My impression is that VA and MD left PARCC because their students were largely failing PARCC.[/quote] I agree. I don't put a lot of stock in US News and World Report because I know how fickle and subjective their College Ratings are. I wish there were more exhaustive rankings or at least evaluations that gave a good idea of the pros and cons of schools. I feel like those of us who have the time to read this board extensively are privileged and I wish finding a good school for our kids was easier. MySchoolDC helps, but I feel like actual good standardized testing which was used throughout the US nationally would be even more helpful.[/quote]
