[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]ATS is successful because of the immigrant families there. They want homework and good behavior. They show up to school on the first day with flowers for the teachers and dress to the nines for every event. They expect their kids to be successful.

Which immigrants [/quote]

Ethiopian, Eritrean, Mongolian, Bolivian, El Salvadoran... [/quote]

Actually, that’s not quite correct. ATS is unique for Arlington in that it has a very small (~10%) contingent of Hispanic students (made up from many different countries, not just one or two), and 30% Asian population. That’s the largest percentage Asian of any school in Arlington, as far as I know.  
And yes, [b]all are very motivated, across all ethnic backgrounds.[/b] [/quote]

Doesn’t sound like they need title I dollars. [/quote]

So motivated and poor = not deserving of support and dollars??

Only unmotivated should get dollars?[/quote]

Seems like APS is making the determination that only the motivated AND poor get additional funds. Unmotivated and poor? We don’t need to apply.[/quote]

No APS doesn’t make that determination. Schools can choose to apply for title 1 funding or not. Get it?[/quote]
