[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Title 1 schools tend to have less kids per class. The trick is to find one on the cusp of flipping to non-title 1 status.  
My kid is at one, now in 4th grade, never had more than 18 kids per class since PK 3.  But lots of UMC families filling out the lower grades, so test score and fundraising going up every year.[/quote]

Ew “the trick”[/quote]

No ew factor at all.  It makes a difference to have some UMC families to raise money for field trips (teachers should not have to write grants to pay for a bus for a field trip), we are one month into school and I have already spent $200 buying supplies for my kids three teachers that will be used for every single kid in the class.  And I am happy to do that. As I tell my kid, if you are in a position to help,then you should help. [/quote]

So you use the community while it is convenient for you so you can have small class sizes, and then abandon it by MS. This is why we have overcrowding at one MS, people think there is only one "acceptable" hs, and the city segregates after 5th grade. I stand by my ew.[/quote]
