[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And if the school jumped to 20% eligible for FARM, that would cause the school to have higher crime and bad behavior? I ask because our school has 70% FARMS and we didn't have those problems. [/quote] Good for you! My kid is a FARM kid and in trouble(few bad words, hope he learned his lesson). I need him to be around non-Farms.[/quote] If your FARM kid is in a school that's 70% FARMS he isn't going to stop getting in trouble. If the critical mass is high FARMS then nothing will get better. The only way it's going to happen is to be in a school that's 20% or less FARMS. And the only way that's going to happen is that the demographic has to shift, significantly. More high-SES families have to come in to the area, and perhaps some low-SES families need to move out of the area. That's the bottom line. It won't happen otherwise.[/quote]
