Very interesting.  [b]Why is Piney Branch in Takoma Park, which is 31% FARMS, a Title I school[/b], but Viers Mill, which is 61% FARMS, not?  There are several other examples of schools with more low income students than Piney Branch also not being Title I schools.  Is it because Piney Branch is in Takoma Park and that part of the county is more politically connected?  Heck, even Rosemary Hills is 26% FARMS (higher than at least one school on the list) - why isn't it a Focus School?  Is it because it's in Chevy Chase?  [/quote]

Piney Branch is not a Title I school.

https://www.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/departments/dtecps/title1/schools.aspx

The Title I schools are Arcola, Bel Pre, Brookhaven, Burnt Mills, Clopper Mill, Cresthaven, Capt. James Daly, Gaithersburg, Georgian Forest, Harmony Hills, Highland, Joann Leleck at Broad Acres, Kemp Mill, New Hampshire Estates, Roscoe Nix, Oak View, Rolling Terrace, Sargent Shriver, South Lake, Strathmore, Summit Hall, Twinbrook, Washington Grove, Watkins Mill, Weller Road, Wheaton Woods, and Whetstone - all elementary schools.[/quote]

PP said the bolded schools were title I schools and it was bolded in that document.  Maybe it was in a prior year, or maybe it was a typo.  [/quote]

Yeah, somebody must have bolded some schools on that chart inadvertently. Piney Branch and Pine Crest are not Title I (but do have class size reduction).[/quote]
