[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But let's assume that most of the at risk kids would be applying for a limite number of good schools. These kids could easily take up most of the spots, especially if they get preference over siblings. A few schools would be overwhelmed meeting the needs of at risk kids. Other families would be hesitant to apply if there is no sibling preferences. This could lead to a good school becoming a not so good school thereby defeating the goal.[/quote] It could be capped at a percentage of each school's population. And a lot of at-risk kids don't lottery for the "good" schools. They lottery for schools they prefer for various reasons including logistics. [/quote] Dozens of schools are majority at-risk students. And many schools are not educating many at-risk students at all.
