[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It will take a critical mass of middle class families in those schools. It's a simple solution. If the families in Barcroft don't move, choice out, or go private en masse, the farms percentage would start to be balanced out somewhat. 65% could become 58%. More families move in and stay. 58% becomes 55%. Ten years down the road it becomes 50%. Now the school is performing like Henry and everyone is happy. The frustrating thing is that APS doesn't seem to have any interest in building a bridge to help those middle class families feel comfortable. They've seemed happy enough to ignore those schools. I hope the search for a new principal at Randolph is signal to those families, they are paying attention and working to build trust. [/quote] That is assuming new FARM students don't get added (such as what happened with families from AH in Arlington Mills getting zoned to Barcroft).[/quote]
