Since the schools in question have not been revealed by others, nor
have I obtained permission from the schools to release their names
(it may be as easy as asking, I have not attempted to do so), I will
not do so here. That said, would it help you to understand this
point if you knew that student performance (as measured by our
state's API, Academic Performance Indicator) at Railside decreased
steadily prior to the year of her data and increased substantially
thereafter? Along with the fact that the school had left a more
traditional approach and returned to one thereafter? And that the
key person in charge of her program there left because the more
traditional approach was mandated by the district (in part, because
horrible API rating) and is now teaching middle school? Probably
not. Just observing.
