So confused why ATS (may be) considered Title I while Innovation and Fleet may not be. I haven't seen the official announcement, but this does seem wrong.

Are the demographics for those schools expected to change? Maybe they will apply after the next boundary changes.

PP said VPI change was made at ATS in 2020. Probably enough history now to see the pattern at ATS.

Innovation will turn higher farms with the new giant Marbella tower opening in the fall. They should be Title I before ATS.

Weirdly the only elementary school they are offering transfers to next year is Science Focus to Innovation. Is that Marbella tower not going to fill Innovation?

I will be surprised if the second Marbella tower ever gets built. Seems like they can't figure out how to finance it.

My hunch is APS is planning boundary changes to fill innovation. It will be less farms.

Why do you think that? I thought they emptied Innovation so they could fill it with elementary students from Marbella. Are you thinking that since the second tower is on hold, they will need to relieve overcrowding at some of the other schools?

But why won’t other high FARMs schools get the same federal money?

Because APS has to redo boundaries. ATS won’t be affected by those changes. Fleet and Innovation will.

Sure.

And why are they applying for Title 1 status NOW, when the FRL hasn’t changed much the past few years?

PP may be right that ATS has been watered down and not doing as well.

Because the VPI changes have filtered through all grades now. It’s reliably at title I levels and VPI means it will stay there.

What a shame for the other schools that also meet the criteria. Inequitable really.

To be fair we don’t know that those schools aren’t also in process of getting it. ATS has the posting but that doesn’t mean others won’t soon. (I work at one of the schools but don’t have any inside info, I do know we have had a lot of students leave in the last few months)

leave why?

Idk why you all care about ATS. It’s not like their students perform better in middle and high school. It’s the best slice of government cheese… but it’s still government cheese.

Where are you getting this data? I have never seen it Broken out anywhere and I’ve spent a lot of time on the APS analytics site.

Parents losing jobs and relocating several students have moved back to South and Central America, military moves, some have not specified.

It's hilarious reading a sock puppet who nobody agrees with.

ATS is good, not great, public school. Why are liberals rooting for it to fail?

On the other hand, since they are now title 1, I'm terrified my child will be in the same school and classroom as poor brown children.

The poor brown children's moms make amazing food and you get to try it once a year. There is no way that ATS will decline its waitlist and yes, we can pin it to 2030. I'll still be wasting time on this hell site.

No, I got it. I was just making this other, and true, point. There's also some cool dancing but that seems off topic.

There will still be a lengthy waitlist, but the people who can afford private school will be gone.
