[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm admittedly not great at working with the PARCC data spreadsheets, but from what I can tell, EH's 7th grade math results for white kids* looks basically identical to all other schools, and even better than some DCUM favs:

% Meets/Exceeds:
EH - 84%
SH - 70%
Deal - 86%
Hardy - 81%
Basis - 87%
Latin - 82%
DCI- 69%

* I'm only breaking this down for white kids to dispel the notion that your privileged kid will not learn anything. I would love to do a deeper dive on how the MS do with educating other demographics [b]but that's not really what the discussion is about here, is it?  [/b]

For me it is. You’re comparing a tiny subset of all test takers at Elliot Hine to cherry pick data, when the data shows that the vast majority of kids at Elliot Hine are [b]below grade level[/b]. The vast majority of kids are at or above grade level at all those other schools (except perhaps 
SH). You cannot tell me that the learning environment at Elliot Hine is going to come close to the same level of education as those other schools when you have so many students struggling with grade level material.
