Reader suggest its time for New Leadership at Ridgewood schools

Ridgewood High School class of 2016

Ultimately Fishbein and Gorman are responsible. Their hefty salaries are funded by the taxpayers. If the rankings don’t improve in 2-3 years, then these two losers get FIRED. It’s that simple, folks.

What part of the budget (none?) is going towards improving the actual ACADEMIC QUALITY of Ridgewood schools?
.
Are the feckless superintendent and RHS principal doing anything to improve these numbers?
.
Ridgewood DID NOT make “The 50 highest scoring schools in NJ’s new school ranking system”
RHS is ranked 84 out of 386 in NJ High Schools (not even top 20%)

.
Ridgewood DID NOT make the “top 10” (or even the “top 25”) in NJ High schools
.
Ridgewood DID NOT even make the “Top 500” high schools Nationally (they were almost in the 600s)
.
Ridgewood BARELY made the top 50% in College Readiness (53.6% of students are ready for college … which means almost HALF of RHS students ARE NOT ready for college)
