[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why not create a true magnet school within Whitman, rather than just (voluntarily) bus kids there based on FARMS? That way you would boost Whitman’s FARMS rate while also increasing the odds that the newfound diversity at the school won’t come with the potential attendant behavior problems and culture clash? Because I can assure you that many Whitman families have enough money to jump to private school if they feel the quality of the school is being eroded. Then it will be a downward spiral academically and the question for the families who are sending their kids to Whitman via long, voluntary bus rides will be, what was the point?[/quote] Whitman is the last school which needs magnet. Magnet are often put in low performing school to atrtact high performing kids to raise school profile. Putting magnet in Whitman won't raise FARMS level in Whitman. Very few FAMRS kids make into magnets.[/quote]
