[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is what I don't understand: Why is it that the SES factor even matters for the CES selection process, when the pool of kids from multiple elementary schools are supposed to fall under same SES category (of of the three)? This is particularly the case for the Cold Spring CES. Any insight?   :roll:

[quote=Anonymous]Last year, they didn't get the desired result which was a CES population that mirrors the demographics (by race which is what they care about) with the cohort model so they are fiddling around with the way they pick to get more URMs in the magnets.[/quote][/quote]

You’re. Lcorrect. The schools assign to one center or another have similar SES so it has little impact. [/quote]

Depends on the cluster. I think it made a difference for Oak View. I think Sligo Creek feeds into this CES and it is less than 10% FARMS/10% ESOL. I have many friends who live there and they are UMC professionals with six-figure incomes. In that same catchment area there are a huge number of Title I schools like Rolling Terrace which is 72% FARMS, 52% ESOL.[/quote]
