[quote=Anonymous]Ross parent here. Ross currently reports 31% FARMS, but this % will drop as younger IB cohorts replace the older, largely OOB ones. 30-35% FARMS families seems to me like a reasonable target for a school like Ross. I would welcome an inner NW cluster if it produced win-win outcomes. What do IB families at Ross want. #1. A feed to a middle / high school with reasonable educational outcomes. #2. More space and small class sizes. #3. A more exciting curriculum. Ross has great fundamentals, but isn't resourced to develop languages, arts, science, or physical education programs. The challenge - come up with a concept for an inner NW cluster that addresses the above, while providing for continued diversity, and keeping the school population in the neighborhood(s). I would get right behind this - understanding that it wouldn't be perfect from day one - and that it would need the backing of IB parents to make it work. [/quote]
