There are some schools that only got satisfactory ratings, but a new principal has gotten them strong to exceptional ratings. The history and trending is very important. There are also neighborhoods that have shown improvement and are "up and coming." You'll see this in school grades as well. I agree Rebekah.

Sometimes a school can have a change in principal or staffing and it may be moving towards the stability and quality that you are looking for.
