[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids are in ACPS schools (middle and high), and we were happy with their elementary school (not LCTA) - so I'm generally an ACPS supporter despite problems in the system. However, it is misleading to say that LCTA has a high FARMS rate. About 25% of the kids are eligible for free and reduced lunches - by far the smallest percentage at any ACPS school. MacArthur is closest at about 30%[/quote] 25% v. 30% FARMS rates isn't that big of a difference. But there is a big difference in test scores and greatschools ratings. I think the PP meant that even with 1/4 of students on FARMS the school still is getting top scores similar to Arlington and McLean schools rankings where there are hardly any FARMS kids. LCTA is a bright spot in ACPS and can compete with any local private when it comes to quality of education.[/quote]
