[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's important to keep FARMS rates in perspective. I agree that schools with high rates (over 50%) can have more than their share of issues. But people are freaking out when the FARMS rate foes from 19% to 22%. That's just silly. [/quote] 3% is signifigant and cause for concern. Sometimes it is a result of illegals in an overboarded house sending their kids to school.[/quote] Okayyy, and sometimes it's the result of apartment complexes within boundary, so more rentals and people who make less money. R U freakin' Kiddin' me? 3% could be the Gucci-wearing neighbors next door that lost both their jobs and have a high mortgage and aren't telling anyone. 3% could be anything. Honestly, I don't get the knee-jerk reaction to people who have children who need assistance.[/quote] If you aren't part of the solution you are part of the problem. [/quote]
