Mostly made up of student scores and progress but at least it has a factual foundation versus just arbitrary ratings. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-find-school-ratings#post-2449829 Thu, 04 Feb 2016 19:13:45 +0000 sorrycharlie 2449829@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>where do you find school ratings that are legitimate? is there such a thing or are they just sort of based on test scores and put together on 3rd party sites?</p> <p>I saw someone recently share a list of the top rated schools in my state so I checked it out. I wasn't impressed with our town's ratings :( I mean they could definitely be worse but.. yeah. so, I'm trying to look up some more ratings! </p>
