Quince Orchard is coming out pretty good with these proposals with having Brown Station and Fields Road assigned to other schools.

Their FARMS rate goes from 31.2% to 22.9% based on the effects table of the superintendent's recommended proposal.

Whereas nearby Northwest goes from 29.7% to 37.1%, part of it is probably from adding Brown Station.

I guess it's better then the initial options, where in that first round options 2 and 4 has QO's FARMS rate go to around 13 or 14 percent, while the other surrounding schools had an increased FARMS rate.[/quote]

Yes Brown Station is already 75% FARMS and the families in that district who choose not to participate in the Spanish immersion program are sent to Fields Road (for now), which means the real Brown Station neighborhood population is likely >75% FARMS. Now that those students will not be sent to Fields Road (given it won't be in the same region), that will have even more of an effect on Northwest's draw. [/quote]
