[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ah, forgot, thanks. Their scores are really low, what choice are parents making to send their kids there. Their reading scores are very low[/quote] Well, when your zone is Barcroft and you don't want to do a year-round school, you can opt for Randolph (also low test scores/high FARMS and well on its way to being overcrowded), or try to lottery into a "choice" school. The only "choice" schools you are allowed to apply to if you are in Barcroft's district are: ATS (only about 10% of all applicants win spots), Claremont (Barcroft zone is 4th priority for the lottery, so not really an option any longer), or Campbell, which faces the same challenges re. test scores/FARMS rates, but at least is not overcrowded and won't be as long as it is a "choice" school.
