I don't have time to look right now, but am wondering-- does that mean there is no DC-CAS score breakdown by income at the 99% schools?

I think everyone at the school is considered low-income, so the low-income scores are the same for the school at large.

If most of the school is FARMS it's just easier to send free lunches to all, instead segregating the haves and have-nots via who has a lunch from home.
