Education is what you put into it.
I think people have lost sight of the fact that education is not easy, in fact it is difficult, and the responsibility is on the individual. Cliffside makes you know that it is your responsibility while providing you with every opportunity to succeed. When push comes to shove and you are working in the real world, you will know that you have to work hard to be effective.
Test scores cannot and do not show the quality of education, especially when you are comparing different populations of people. I am not saying that test scores are not important, but I am saying that it is important to know what the starting point was of the students.
For example, a student who scores 95 on an exam compared to a non-english speaking student who scores 25. When the test is given again 1 year later, the first student scores 96 and the non-english student scores 75. Which educational system is superior? Just something to think about.
