[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think SCES’s FARMS rate is higher than 18% but still lower than ESS. But that is due, in part, the French immersion program (which serves students outside the catchment area) dragging down the average. The non-French classes at SCES have significantly more students that qualify for FARMS.

But another unanswered question is what happens to the French immersion program, especially at the middle school level with the dissolution of SSIMS. Nobody has answered this, or many other questions, yet.

They should just keep SCES where it is and keep SSIMS open. Their current plan makes no sense.

Agree, but the FARMS difference is pretty significant even without French immersion and I think this boundary is one of the ones most due for evaluation in a new study.

I suspect if SCES were moved further north, perhaps near the golf course, the population south of Wayne Ave could be absorbed into ESS.  That school is high FARMS and also under enrolled.[/quote]
