Congratulations to Forestiere Methodist! However we need to be careful how we use and quote statistics. So Forestiere has just about 80 students as a school population, but Camille Henry had just about the same number who took the exam.
If a school has 2 students taking an exam and both of them pass, that school has a 100% pass rate, but if another has 50 students taking the same exam and 40 of them pass that other school has an 80% pass rate. Which is really the better performing school?
