[quote=Anonymous]Here is the issue according to the previously cited Turque piece approximately 67% of students in DC are at or below the threshold for FARM. Assuming the economy does not do much better than it is now, there is virtually no way that middle class parents will find schools with what they perceive as critical numbers for for succeeding/well off enough parents. There are just not enough kids to fill those slots. Even if these parents do not move out the fact that the birth rate crashed in 2008 is also going to reduce those numbers. [/quote]
