What does an acceptable rating for a school system mean…particularly for Carrollton?
Be sure to get the whole picture on the ratings system. Students can have great test scores, but issues like drop-out rates get factored into the overall rating and skew the results. Try not to get caught up in school ratings in middle school, either. It’s a time when bodies are growing and hormones are racing. Rebelling against the system and lack of enthusiasm for the whole testing process can cause middle school ratings to be lower. It’s always best to get information on schools from the schools themselves. Many schools have plans of action for maintaining for achieving higher school ratings, and they are happy to share this information.
