[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is the potential FARMS rate at Wootton @ Crown? Asking as a family in a Woodward zone.[/quote] 19%. Wootton's current FARMS rate is 14%.[/quote] Students with parent who are low income can also be smart and do well in school.[/quote] They absolutely can - and more kids with low income parents would do better if they got to go to better schools. Having more socioeconomically diverse schools vs. schools where the poverty is concentrated is good for all kids, because it ensures that all kids get access to better resources (for example, wealthier schools often offer more advanced coursework and schools with higher levels of poverty have smaller class sizes - both things that are good for everyone) and have better life skills (like the kind of understanding and empathy you need to have for others to prevent yourself from yelling about how poor kids are going to ruin your school in a public forum).[/quote]
