[quote=Anonymous]I have no idea what you are trying to prove. You said they must be doing something right. My point was one of the things they are doing right is getting the student body to be more affluent. Generally speaking, a higher percentage of white kids means that the student body as a whole is more affluent. Generally speaking, kids whose parents can figure out transportation to/from a charter are more affluent. It also looks like the spending per pupil at CPA is higher than other schools in the county. Spending more money + more affluent kids = higher test scores. There is no mystery to it. It's like marveling that TAG schools are recognized as Blue Ribbon schools. If you only admit kids who are in the 80% percentile of IQ scores, most of the kids in the school are going to score high on standardized tests. [/quote]
