[quote=Anonymous]I say bunk. UMC parents, particularly white parents, don't tend to care much about ES test scores. They mainly care about enrolling at the schools where the other UMC parents enroll. For example, Brent's test scores have been among the lowest for white kids in the city for years, yet UMC parents continue to flock to Brent. The school's at-risk rate has plummeted in the decade my kids have been there from more than a 1/3 to around 5%. Meanwhile, Watkins continues to post among the highest test scores for white kids in the city, but isn't nearly as popular as Brent for UMC families.[/quote]
