But the difference is I can afford either but chose to avoid kids like yours. You take what it ever the cheapest option is and like everything in life you get what you pay for.
I can't believe you'd brag about avoiding "the poors". "Poors" in a county where a house still costs 400-500k, or rent is over $2500.
God you are awful. Please do some self reflection.

This is just a list of schools in order of how wealthy the parents are.
No, it is a list of quality of the local cohort, it just happens to be that better off parents produce better performers at a much higher rate.
In real life, I never hear people referring to the kids of low-income, little-education people as low-quality kids. But on DCUM, people do this all. the. time. Seriously, who are you all?!

I suspect the list also corresponds to the percentage of kids that got to college, avg SAT scores, #of AP's taken and scoring a 3 or better.
However you need to justify your prejudices.

Amazing.. this list corresponds very closely to how white the schools are. Surely you are not saying that the whiter the school the better?

What you get, when you pay for housing in Churchill, is a school full of kids whose affluent parents believe that schools full of kids with affluent parents are better.

Like others said, the % white graph could summarize OP's intentions a lot more succinctly than that stupid long post

This is a list of schools based on SES. That's it, and has nothing to do with quality of the teachers or programs at the school.
And why would QO and Sherwood be ranked higher than RM?
DP. Since you brought up SES, Sherwood is more affluent than QO...and comparable to RM (actually, RM has far more low-income housing).

DP.. yes, which is why it's a list based on wealthy.

The magnet curricula are better for whom? Not for everyone.
Indeed.. not for those who can't hack it, which is why they don't go to the magnets and still get a decent education at their non magnet home schools.
