[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Brent hasn't been Title 1 for several years.

What a silly thread!  Nobody who has visited the school lately would ask such a goofy question, even on DCUM.

Just look at the PreS3, PreK4, K, 1st and 2nd grade classes.  Hardly a low-income or AA kid left.   Give Brent a few years and it will be as white as JKLM, for better or worse.

Huh, last I looked at DC's 2nd grade class, there were plenty of AA kids.  Huge range of incomes; yes, many high SES and many not even close.  5th grade is 9 AA kids, then 2 Latino kids and 5 white.  3rd and 4th seem pretty diverse as well; I know personally a good handful of single parents who certainly don't make much money.

However, back to the topic at hand, I think we have established that the teacher at Brent did not specify that Brent is high poverty.

Also, Tyler is clearly not 99% FARMS given the large number of middle class parents in the Spanish Immersion program and some in the autism and Arts Integration programs.  [/quote]
