[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not inspired by ITS's scores, and I say that as a long time parent. 25/18 for AA kids may be better than the DC average, but it is awful. 62/62 for white kids is quite poor also, especially compared to WOTP white scores, e.g., 81/84 at Key.

I want my bright child challenged and lifted by a room full of smart kids. Sadly, it looks like I've been kidding myself about ITS.

You assume that your "bright child" is not being enriched based on test scores?  You picked the wrong school if that's the metric you care about.  [/quote]

I'm not the ITS mom, but be fair.

She believed that the school was hiring and training excellent teachers who would use best practices to teach children required content in engaging and innovative ways (hence the name "Inspired Teaching School").

But so far it doesn't look like the students are doing so well in demonstrating they have mastered the required content. She's got questions and is disappointed.[/quote]
