[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Running the numbers, if Westfield lost Floris, Coates, and McNair while picking up all of Bull Run and Cub Run, its FARM rate would increase from [b]31.31% to 37%. It would also be less than 1900 students[/b], so it would probably pick up more than just the remainder of Bull Run and Cub Run from Centreville and Chantilly. [/quote]

Let's be real, hundreds of middle class kids would transfer out in this scenario, as there would be very few advanced courses being offered. So maybe 1600 kids would show up for the first day.[/quote]

[b]A school with fewer than 1900 kids and 37% FARMs will offer almost no AP courses. Principals are told a class must have 30 or 35 students to offer it. [/quote[/b]]

Please show your work.  I don't understand how removing kids with higher FARMs and replacing them with somewhat lower FARMS, increases to 37% and reduces population to 1900.  Please explain, because you have not shown your work.[/quote]
