[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]The study that MCPS seems to be clinging to that showed low income kids do better in schools with less than 25% FARMS was done across school systems where poorer schools had less resources[/b]. This study had a number of flaws in the methodology but even if you set those aside the study really only showed the correlation against funding ,not demographics of peers. Nation wide less is spent per student in low income schools than neighboring high income schools. When people speak at the national level about educational opportunities, this is what they are talking about and this is an inequity. [/quote] Nope. Not true.[/quote]
