2008 Orleans Parish School District and Recovery School District
LEAP/GEE Scores in Context
The Scott S. Cowen Institute for Public Education Initiatives at Tulane University
August 2008
Abstract:
This document is comprised of a series of graphs representing the LEAP and GEE scores for Orleans Parish School Board and Recovery School District schools as well as all public schools in Louisiana for the school years ending in 2005, 2007, and 2008. The graphs and accompanying notes locate the changing scores in the context of a shifting student population and the Recovery School District takeover of traditionally low-performing schools.
