[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is the farms rate at 2 rivers?[/quote] No school releases "FARMS" data anymore, because at schools where 60% of students qualified they go ahead and give free meals to everyone. So if you look at "FARMS" rates as a proxy for poverty, the data is really inaccurate. The city has adopted "at risk" percentage as the metric. To qualify a student must be in foster care, homeless, or from a family that qualifies for TANF or SNAP nutrition assistance. FWIW students who are from 'working poor' families, who wouldn't qualify as 'at risk,' often qualify for free or reduced-price meals. The at-risk percentage at TR 4th is 26%, and at TRY it is 20%.[/quote]
