[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you look at the link above on the DCPCSB it says 27.1%!and was modified 12/14 so those are the current number.

Unwittingly it seems as though the boosters have pointed out a large drop in FARMS kids in the last two years. [/quote]

What is your point?? It could also mean less FARMS kids chose to come to BASIS this year.[/quote]

I do find it odd that BASIS parents were claiming Title I status when they aren't even close to it. This must have caught them off guard also. [/quote]

The fact is that BASIS qualified for Title 1 status last and it is public knowledge. As for the new numbers they were probably just released. I have not even heard of the new percentages for total enrollment for DCPS and charter students this year, have you? I thinking you grasping at straws to criticize. Geesh :roll: [/quote]

I have no idea what you are talking about regarding total enrollment.   The claim was made that BASIS is a Title I school (which it isn't) to highlight its achievement.  Pointing out fact isn't grasping at straws.

I would expect Deal's number of FARMS to drop this year too as their IB numbers increase considering its location.  I wonder what made BASIS numbers drop?  Different enrollment?  We know they were unable to fill their 6th grade.  I don't know.  Do you?[/quote]

Why not look at it positively and make the assumption that DC is lulling itself out of its recession, more people have jobs or at least better paying ones and therefore there are less kids qualifying/needing FARMS? Wouldn't that be awesome? [/quote]
