[quote=Anonymous]I don't think they studied this, but I would support a system that first gave preference to at risk kids whose sibling(s) attend the school and then to other at risk kids. I wouldn't want the good goal of at-risk preferences to make more at-risk families face situations where siblings would be split up. Requiring schools with low at-risk percentages to back-fill their classes throughout the year and in every grade would also make a huge difference. There is no reason why Ross, for example, can just choose not to take kids and wind up with a 12-student 5th grade. [/quote]
