[quote=Anonymous]I was interested in the suggestion that the FARMS enrollment in FCPS is spiraling out of control, or that this could be due in any way to School Board policies. Turns out that the growth in the FARMS percentage in FCPS over the past 15 years has been lower than in the state of Virginia as a whole. Loudoun is the only public school system of any size in Virginia with a lower FARMS rate than Fairfax. Changes in the FARMS eligibility formulas may have something to do with the increase as well. Families currently can have incomes that are 185% of the poverty level and qualify for assistance. [/quote]
