[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Boundary change needs to happen and while doing it if we can avoid situations like two ES in the same cluster ending with 7% and 70% FARMs then we should surely do that. BOE in their infinite wisdom decided to create boundary with 7% and 70% in RM cluster when new ES came online. [/quote] This just goes to show that some folks think the BOE don't do enough to spread diversity and others think they are doing too much like busing. I was part of that boundary study. If you are referring to Twinbrook with 70%FARMs rate, the TB community didn't want to split up, and part of the reason was due to losing their Title 1 funding. The option that would've split up TB left the school at 40% FARMS rate (still waaay too high for the cluster) but not high enough to get Title 1 funding. That was a lose-lose proposition for them.[/quote]
