[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It seems that posters on DCUM freely assume when evaluating school quality that predominantly low SES/high FARMS rate/majority AA = bad test scores/disruptive in the classroom. What basis in science does this have? If there is strong correlation, is it universal or specific to certain cities, regions or situations? I'm just trying to get a hold on the facts and separating them from baseless fearmongering and prejudice. [/quote] AAs have worse test scores across all SES levels when compared to whites and Asians. Poor AAs have the lowest test scores of any demographic out there, so a school of poor AA students will almost always have significantly below average test scores.[/quote]
