Geography Test

See which Sacramento schools did best, worst on 2017 state math tests

 This map shows the 50 local [Sacramento] schools with the highest proportion of students meeting state math standards, and vice versa. Schools marked in red are among the worst performing. While schools marked in green are among the best performing.

 Want to bet that this map wasn't on the test?

Met an old lady who was touched by the tornado. Pulled off gutters and then the water came in and flooded the first floor when hand that awful rain

Lawyerliz said...

We had that awful rain.

Is this today's thread or yesterday's?

Political central the worst. Connection?🤠

Look at the red and green dots almost side-by-side in Elk Grove. I wonder if a railroad track runs between the two schools? (Wrong side of the track). I'd hate to be the principal of the red dot school unless there was some bona fide reason.

Nothing more money won't fix. 🤑

Some of the exceptions are continuation or magnet schools. It isn't a perfect corellation because of stuff like that. You also have charter schools that share an address with a regular school but aren't physically there.

The day before

Lawyerliz said...

So, more magnet schools for city. == more red schools??

Lawyerliz said...

It rained again, hard more puddles in yard. News paper informs me I am to keep eyes on Guf. Bleh.

Liz, probably more likely the inner city kids that care (and are likely to score well) are busing out to the burbs to get the education they desire(deserve?). Leaves the inner city with nothing to average up with.

St. John's River in flood for 3 weeks more rain == more flood. Flooded houses. How long before the people quit and leave?

Good Morning!☀️

When schools quit being a jobs program and stop trying to mold social drones, maybe they can teach with discipline and reality. Voucher will fix that. IMO.

The nuns actually flunked people, but nut often
They did a lot of rote work, which some kids did.learn better from. We had 5o to 55 kids in a class, yet order was kept. Nobody tried to turn anybody into a critical thinker, which I don't think is possible any way. But they did try and beat everyone's head into learning reading and spelling and simple arithmetiv, and really simple minded (and often false) history).

And religion.

LBD said...

Nothing wrong with an introduction to religion as long as it is not focal. Ran into a 74 year old hair dresser still working for fun and money. She closed her business 34 years ago, tired of babysitting young who couldn't even show up to work. I still hear it on occasion. Sad that most don't have the discipline or attention span to do simple work. Let's import more poverty, that will fix it.

Simple work is the worst. I have no patience for it. Complex, challenging and difficult work will keep me engaged for long periods of time, but I have no patience for "copy this page word for word in your own notes" style work. I was a C student in grade school, but I did much better in college. I would have had a terrible time in any sort of religious schooling.

LBD said...

Simple work builds integrity and teaches people like me what I didn't want to do for a living. I have little desire to do repetive work as well. Religion didn't stick with me either but it is part of our history and culture. The only thing I wanted out of school was me.

Lawyerliz said...

Hehe. Catholicism is very intricate. I liked in the same sense as I like Greek and Roman and lately Celtic mythology. But. . . Believe it? Except for some moral insights, nah.

Took pictures of ancient Pict culture stone carvings today.

More rain.
