First let me say that I think there are great things going on at all our schools even our struggling schools. Amazing teachers teaching and great kids learning but I also believe most of this happens in spite of the school board and superintendent not because of them. If the board ran the district the right way by supporting the districts teachers and by demanding student accountability we would be in a much better place.
Only one of our neighborhood high schools ranks in the top 183 high schools in the state. Mandarin high comes in at 85 out of 404. Eight of our neighborhood high schools were in the bottom 25 including 404 out of 404.
The KIPP impact school was ranked 1784 out 1795 on the elementary school list. It had plenty of company as we had elementary schools ranked, 1708, two tied at 1717, 1720, 1759, 1761, 1769, 1778, 1780 and 1781. We had seven in the top ten percent and 23 in the bottom ten percent of schools.
Our highest ranked neighborhood middle school was Mandarin Middle School at 162 out of 583 schools. We had ten schools ranked in the 500s.
Friends we can turn this around but it starts with us replacing the districts leadership.
