[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]90 percent feeder certainly isn’t the same as 90 percent in boundary enrollment when several feeders have very substantial OOB populations. It makes a big difference in student preparation, academic achievement and remedial needs. But the phrase is a clever sleight of hand.[/quote] The point is the oob kids from those schools have been in the same classrooms getting the same instruction and same opportunity has the IB kids - with same range of test scores etc. they may just be - gasp - more diverse. OOB children of color from lower income areas won the spelling bee, science fair and mathletes at our WOTP hardy feeder. [/quote] Anyone who looks at the varied performance and disciplinary record of the Wilson population will realize that feeders feed a wide array of students whose academic preparation, focus, and attitude are quite disparate.
