It seems odd that a school whose population changes year to year could be a Title 1 designated school. Couldn't they lose it the next year?

No more than Campbell. some neighborhood title I schools more likely to lose their status before Campbell or ATS.

VPI will keep low income enrollment steady.

But why not apply for other schools? Why wait until 50% when they’re eligible at 40%?

Because neighborhood schools on cusp can easily tip the other way.

OR they know many of the higher income families in the neighborhood won’t send their kids to a Title 1 school, making it even more low-performing.

+1 ATS won’t have that problem.

They will if performance starts to decline. And this application for Title 1 makes it seem like things are heading in that direction.

If APS applies for ONE school that’s under 50% FRL, that’s inequitable for the other schools that also meet the criteria.

Oh I’m sure there will be a huge waitlist from SA. Let’s check back and see how many NA families apply.

Probably as many as there are now. Not very many.

Title 1 status will deter some families from applying. The families who choose between private schools and ATS. So the school will become more and more low income. Wait and see.

Our kids would be in private if they weren’t in ATS. We can afford private but we love the diversity at ATS and high achievement at ATS.

That’s a different story when achievement declines.

That hasn’t happened at Campbell and they are a title I option school.
