[quote=BGinRB]I think Rancho Santa Fe, Del Mar Elementary, SOlana Beach Elementary and Carmel Unified are all ranked higher than Poway Unified.[/quote]
I will never understand how Poway Unified got such a great reputation. Their schools look great in the test scores until you compare them to districts with similar socioeconomic status. Then they are just middle of the road, nothing special. I’m beginning to think “great schools” is just a code phrase for “no brown people”.
My wife is a teacher and doesn’t want to have anything to do with that district after talking to people who worked there. It’s hard to know what’s worse: the spoiled kids or their my-little-Johnny-can-do-no-wrong parents.
