[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All APS option schools have “self-selecting” parents, but no option school has managed to close the socioeconomic achievement gap like ATS has. That, if nothing else, is ATS’s best feature. All students are high achieving there, not just the ones who would be anyway. [/quote]

Oh come on. At Montessori, two-thirds of slots are reserved for families with incomes that are at or below 80 percent of Arlington’s median income. Let's see ATS put that in place and see how you do with achievement gap. Montessori does excellent, by the way. [/quote]

As someone who have direct inside knowledge, your statement is very mis-leading, ask APS to publish the real % of kids on free and reduced lunch at Montessori school and you'll see!!  I can't say too much, but I know.  [/quote]

New poster here, but whatever secret info you think you have isn’t a secret, or won’t be anyway, because in a month the FRL rate for Montessori at Henry will published along with every other school’s in APS. FWIW, I did the math during the boundary shift when APS released enough data to estimate the FRL for Montessori alone at Drew, without the graded program. I came up with 20-30 percent. I’d guess that’s what the numbers will show in October.  [/quote]
