[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do people think it's going to pass its 5-year review?[/quote]

They've already had their five year review- should be coming up on a 10 year soon[/quote]

It will be next fall/winter, so they have this year to sort themselves out.  I have a hard time seeing an outright shutdown, but a conditional continuance seems likely.  [/quote]

What does it take for an outright shut down? I feel like retention and recruitment of students should have a higher weight in evaluation of schools. [/quote]

It depends on the school's goals.  Or if there are financial problems or not enough money or other violations of law.  But given the low test scores and low retention, they are definitely in trouble, especially because these were issues at their 5-year review as well.  Last time they got a conditional continuance.  In general being Tier 3 for more than one year is a sign of big trouble.  SSMA was a high tier 2 last year, so they have some room to drop before they hit Tier 3.[/quote]
