[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One thing that puzzles me is the huge discrepancy between FARM rates for certain schools and the poverty rate and median income figures from the census. Whenever I have looked at schools in the area, there seems to be huge differences. Take Lee HS and the Springfield CDP (which basically covers only central Springfield, not west Springfield). As I recall, the FARMs rate at Lee HS is around 50%, but the census numbers for he Springfield CDP say the poverty rate is something like 7% with a median household income around $90k. What accounts for such a significant difference? [/quote] Empty nesters, DINKS, SINKS?[/quote]
