[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's because the low income parents at ATS are Type A as well.  You have to put effort in to enter the lottery. [/quote]

Not really. They get in through VPI lottery and any parent who bothers to apply to VPI has an equal shot at getting in to ATS. There's not supposed to be an additional hurdle, unless ATS is engaging in some shenanigans to weed out certain families. [/quote]

Right but they have to know enough / be able / have access to bother to apply. [/quote]

Does anyone know if there is data to suggest that the ATS VPI kids are outperforming the VPI kids at other schools? I'd be interested to see this information. Because that would point to this educational model being superior for certain subgroups. [/quote]

Uh no it wouldn’t. It would prove that they have more invested patents. Why is this so hard to grasp?[/quote]

Uh, yes it would. If parents put in for VPI, the spots are all lottery across the board. AFAIK. Are you saying they have to opt into that specific school? Isn't it just luck? Not effort? [/quote]
