[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This also explain why Latin is so committed to implementing the at-risk preference in the lottery.  The administration agrees that it wants a mechanism to rais the at-rik numbers back to where they were historically

Anyway--it's obvious that this charter board member was grandstanding, with Latin as his foil.

"You began to address some of the
issues that I want to raise,

but I just feel the
need to state them publicly, which is -- I will
 say personally, it gets exhausting to see the
highest-ranked academic schools in this city
consistently have among the lowest at-risk
populations.
In a city where almost 50 percent of
kids are at risk, your numbers are 6.8 in the
middle school and 16.8 in the high school. [/quote]

What I find interesting is that the at risk doesn’t remain similar from middle school to high school.  It actually increase by almost 2.5 times which is significant.

This tells me that there are a significant number of non at risk families leaving the school and not continuing onto high school.  These spots are then taken up by more at risk students.[/quote]
