[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Do the “special ed” students at WJ include the GT/LD kids? If so, then it might be a false assumption that they are bringing down the average.[/quote]

The source data document did not define "Special Education" but the context the document used was "Special Education or LEP" which tends to indicate that GT/LD was not included?  Again, can't say definitively, only in context.[/quote]
I think the point is that any broad brush approach is inherently flawed. It's more nuanced.[/quote]

But hard data and facts are always better than opinions - especially unsubstantiated ones.  I've found there are a lot of people in and around DC who attempt to reshape reality according to their own personal views and opinions.

Facts and data are the only way to separate out the hard working, earnest teachers and staff at the school level to recognize their efforts.[/quote]

I think their point is that the raw data dumps although facts aren't meaningful. That you need a more nuanced analysis to really understand the value of one school over another. [/quote]
