[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So far, I'm not seeing that any of these new schools are being targeting to middle class families, who really lack decent options in this city. [/quote] You are judging this by capsule bios on a link. Stay woke.[/quote] [b]When schools state explicitly that they are targeting a FARMS population and will locate in Wards 7/8[/b], I don't think that it is a stretch to say the school is not going to serving middle class residents.[/quote] If you look back at the applications for existing charter schools, many state that purpose and target population and location but then ultimately open elsewhere because of where they secure space. Then they end up being less convenient options to the stated target population and (often but not always) more attractive to the families who live nearby. Target doesn't necessarily or exclusively match actual lottery applicants.[/quote]
