[StBernard] St. Bernard Parish students make gains in LEAP scores

[Westley Annis]

How do you explain New Orleans school system in the LEAP TESTING FOR 4TH AND
8TH GRADERS (95%).........                Magnet schools with Admissions
testing ..........which is comparing apples to oranges when comparing to
school districts which accept all students
 

 
The top average performance came from students in the 16 schools that remain
under the Orleans Parish School Board. That's hardly surprising, as the
board in 2005 kept only schools that were not failing before the storm and
several of those campuses are magnet schools with admissions requirements.
