[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Eastern has low utilization and low in-boundary numbers. They also have a very low percentage of students at grade level. If they have [b]advanced offerings[/b] - like, real academic differentiation across the subjects beginning in the 9th grade - that's a huge potential draw. [/quote] These aren't going to be advanced offerings. They will be "advanced" in the sense that the teacher won't have to stop as often to deal with behavior issues and everyone in the class will be able to read, but I wouldn't hope for more than that. They get a few field trips and guest speakers per year and do some modules on https://www.university-startups.com/ but that's not going to teach them anything a kid from a home with two college-educated parents wouldn't already know. There's no secret TJ or even Banneker or Walls buried within Eastern. [/quote]
