[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here are your non-W schools with lower than 30% Farms. There are others that are not far over 30%, but, FARMS have steadily risen since the early 2000s, they are not getting lower!

I included Wootton because maybe you'll find a unicorn. I think your budget is tough period. You'll have to compromise.

Clarksburg (26%)
Damascus (14%)
Richard Montgomery (19%)
Northwest HS (22%)
Poolesville (6%)
Quince Orchard (21.3%)
Sherwood (15%)
Wootton (less than 5%)

Out of curiosity, I looked at FARMS rates back in 2002. Wheaton was the only highschool with over 30% FARMS at 38.4%. [b]18 out of 26 (69%) of our highschools are over 30% Farms with some being more than 50%. The school system is done.[/b] Buyer beware.

Here is the dashboard with data.

Which goes to show, yet again, that the definition of "good schools" is "schools with not a lot of poor kids." Not that buildings, not the teachers, not the curriculum, not the administration, not anything the school actually does - just the students who go to the school.[/quote]

The irony is people who think like that aren't especially birght and even worse oppose any constructive changes that might improve things so we're actually better off when they leave.[/quote]
