[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wonder if a closer look at the SES and demographics among black families between the two might tell the story. Does one neighborhood have more ESOL kids or more newly arrived immigrant families that might disadvantage school performance. Or if FARMS rates are similar are the kids at PBES comparatively poorer and thus more likely to have other environmental disadvantages?[/quote] The numbers are misleading. You'd need to look at the percentage of black and Hispanic kids that are ESOL or FARMs for this to be meaningful. Piney Branch is more diverse in terms of SES and that tends to muddy the waters. Also the MD report card data is especially difficult to extract so I'd stick with GS for now.[/quote]
