[quote=Anonymous]It's not a non-starter, not with neighborhood demographics changing so rapidly and the charter lotteries getting tougher and tougher. The new LT principal will have come under increasing pressure to appease high SES parents with programmatic offerings designed to increase upper grades challenge in face of the achivement gap as time goes on. Once a critical mass of 3rd grade white kids (25+) take the next generation of standardized tests linked to the Common Core, with subgroup scores pulled out, the pressure will mount. I'm guessing that will happen three or four years hence. The Watkins white kids test advanced at four to five times the rate of AA classmates for both reading and math. I don't expect the gap to be nearly as wide at LT, but a big gap it will be. [/quote]
