[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not the issue here, but just wanted to note that an indication of "99% FARMS" on a school profile does not necessarily mean that. I think it means that the school has a high enough percentage of poor families to tip it into the Title 1 category, so they declare the whole school FARMS, meaning even middle class kids don't pay for meals. That's the case at the Title 1 school where my child attends. [/quote] OP here. Yeah, I am aware of the Community Eligibility Option for Title I schools, but as we all know there is a fairly close door correlation in DCPS schools, particularly those on the Hill, between race and SES. Obviously, not all white kids are middle class and not all AA or Latino kids are lower income, but the racial profiles of the Title I Cap Hill schools are informative.[/quote]
