[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]it’s interesting how some of you seem to think test scores for some of these kids in low performing schools will somehow magically increase in a new building? Some of the lowest performing schools in the county already have the nicest facilities and top of the line equipment. The building makes zero difference for actual performance. [/quote] [quote=Anonymous] I don't think that, but I also don't think the high-achieving students' test scores will go town just by having a few more poor kids in their building. [/quote] That's not how branding works. It's the average and low performing kids in the Wooton cluster that will no longer be able distinguish themselves with a brand name. EG the low performing kids in Wooton will still be low performing kids at Crown, but they will be indistinguishable from just poor families. Valedictorians will also just not have quite the shine that the Churchill ones do. [/quote]
