[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We've established that a couple hundred non ed students transfer out, a somewhat smaller number, less than 200, transfer in. There are 1000 non ed students at Wakefield. That means something like 800 non ed kids are zoned for Wakefield and go there. We don't know their personal educational histories, so we can't for sure say where they were living or where they were going to school before this point, so on those narrow terms, no, I can't prove it. but it's reasonable to think that most non ed students at Wakefield went to Oakridge, Henry, and the option schools because non-ed students are a minority at most other SA neighborhood schools.

What's your response to the poster at 11:40?[/quote]

It's an interesting analysis but it's missing carlin springs and I think it puts too much emphasis on an arbitrary breakpoint, title i status. Claremont is nearly title 1, Campbell is and so is Drew. So it's actually eliminating from the analysis two of the three most popular option schools for SA students. These schools are often preferable to parents in schools with farms rates at or above 70. There a huge difference between half of a school being disadvantaged and nearly all of it being so.[/quote]

I'm unclear what your point is on the Claremont, Campbell and Drew - should transfers to those schools have been backed out of the analysis or not? Campbell and Drew were included in the transfer adjustment since they are Title I, Claremont was not. [/quote]
