[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the article shows is that most white / higher SES families will only go to a school once it is "proven," and then they apply in droves. [b]For charters proven tends to means decent test scores and outcomes and a permanent location.[/b] The leading edge classes are always more diverse racial and economically. Lots of white families hang back until the school has a few years under its belt and more stability. Once that happens the school no longer reflects the kind community that helped make it viable. [/quote] Maybe in general, but this doesn't seem to be the case with CMI. White/higher SES families were applying in droves even before any metrics/outcomes were available, and before a permanent location.[/quote]
