Ridgewood probably did not participate because they knew they would rank poorly.
.
Face it – RW schools have dropped significantly in quality.
.
RW is a “good,and solid” school, but not a “great” school anymore.
There is too much “social engineering” bloat in the school curriculum and too many tutors in the home.
.
The only reason that the students do as well as they do is because the parents instill the value of education in their children and hire tutors to support their children when the school system falls short and fails them.
.
Also RW parents and students are savvy enough to build an attractive “portfolio” of the correct types of extra-curricular activities, sports and “community outreach” activities as well as building a positive social media profile in order to get accepted into one of the “right” colleges.
.
RW Schools reputations are resting on the work of the parents and students… It used to be the other way around

  1. Maybe taking a stand against meaningless rankings.

  2. Was Princeton High School in the rankings? It all has to do with how many opted out of PARCC. End of story.

  3. I see the teachers union is posting on the blog again…
