[quote=Anonymous]I believe their defininition of non-economically disadvantaged kids means they don't get free or reduced lunch which is far from being middle class (and especially upper middle class). Undocumented kids also don't get assistance. Also this group does not exclude English language learners (who currently have to best tested with the rest of the class after one year of ESL. One of Randolph's challenges is the transience of its students. Most 4th and 5th graders did not start out at Randolph.  Also, 7 middle class studenta from educated families with a lot of extra home support is actually pretty optimistic for some of the current upper grades (slightly more middle class families in lower grades).  This is not to say that it's not a fair point to make--Randolph should be doing a better job for all its students, but you really, really can't compare scores to Nottingham. Apples and oranges.  Also why I think a bigger influx of middle class families will make a difference.[/quote]
