[quote=Anonymous]Yes- you are right. I will just mention that mathematically with such a small population, small raw numbers make a big percentage change.

Perhaps 8-12 students out of 70 have historically left Latin after 8th grade to head to another high school. Often Walls and often private and often because of sports or other extracurricular pursuits that are more robust elsewhere.

You are correct, few of this handful of students that switch out are at-risk students.

AND, at the same time, the proportion of at-risk students who are applying for the 9th grade slots that have opened is larger than at the middle school level. So non-at-risk students who leave are more likely be replaced with at-risk students in the high school.

Still small actual numbers, but the percentage does jump.

You can see it laid out in this presentation about the at-risk lottery preference that was given to parents over the summer:
