Guess What School Is In The Bottom 300 Of ALL Florida Schools? (updated)

Ding Ding Ding.....We have a winner folks!


"F" school WINDSOR PREP IS in the BOTTOM 300 of ALL FLORIDA State SCHOOLS per the Florida Department of Education website.



  That isn't just the bottom 300 of the 615 Charter schools operating in Florida, but rather they are in the bottom 300 of  the 4,323 operational public schools PLUS the 615 operational charter schools.
  
  Now, to further break it down, there are 1,995 public elementary schools in Florida. 

  Next, I poured through the Florida Dept. of Education website, and called them, but apparently they can't figure out how many charter schools are just K-5 like "F" school Windsor Prep. All they have is the total of all charter schools, which as noted is 615. That puts them in the bottom 300 of 2,610 schools, which so far is as much as I can narrow it down. 

 Note too, this low score is based on just "F" school Windsor Prep, and not the middle school East Windsor Academy. (so far)

But, I think you get the general idea, and remember, this all comes from the state of Florida's data.

  I highly recommend putting in a little research time.

And remember, this is AFTER former principal Jessica Clements told the Pinellas County school board at last years hearing that A- they would be switching to the Pinellas County curriculum and teaching methods, but also B- that these dismal numbers were still better than the prior year. HAHAHAHA. WoW,  

Here's the "School Improvement Plan" they had to draft: Windsor Prep School Improvement Plan (PDF)

And again, one little reminder....If they do manage to pull their grade up, they only did so because they switched to and followed the Pinellas County Public Schools Curriculum and methodology of teaching. In addition, their teaching staff ( kept a straight face when I referred to them as such) partook of the Pinellas County Public Schools continuing education and training modules for teachers. 

Public Schools work. They are just the same as Charters, except their accountability has to be transparent, and they don't force parents to be involved. If you are actively involved in your child's school career, your child will succeed as readily, if not more so than at a Charter School. 

And maybe this one would do a whole lot better if they would leave the neighbors alone and do their jobs! Just a thought.
