[quote=Anonymous]DP I don't think there is any real tipping point that can be definitively known. The research is all observational, not to mention one group of kids that receive FARMS can be very different from another group of kids that receives FARMS. Same for non FARMS kids.

But what is obvious is that in general kids that receive FARMS have on average more needs than kids that don't receive FARMS. At the high school level schools receive no significant extra funding to address the needs associated with poverty. Spreading out those needs evenly across schools makes it easier to meet those needs absent additional resources. It is truly criminal to intentionally concentrate the needs in one of two schools that are so close together.[/quote]

[b]Woodward would have logical boundaries[/b] and a FARMS rate well below the overall MCPS rate under Taylor’s proposal. You’re just angry it won’t be a low FARMS school like WJ or Whitman. [/quote]

And by logical you mean it will keep high FARMS kids as far away from you as possible.[/quote]
