[quote=Anonymous]As for diversity, I believe that a number of charters including ITS have expressed some kind of support, at least in theory, for neighborhood and/or at-risk preferences, but that's not part of the lottery system yet. I think schools that have had higher scores and Tier 1 status for longer than ITS (just Tier 1 this year and at the low end of the tier) have been better able to attract lower income families really looking for high-performing schools (as measured by test scores and closing achievement gap). I also think many upper income families in Ward 5 are perhaps very interested in the convenience of mid-high performing schools that are in their neighborhood but are not their neighborhood schools.[/quote]
