[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The problem isn't racism its the fact that freedom hill has a majority of under performing students. The racial background of freedom hill and lemon road are similar but freedom hill has poorer and less academically excelling kids[/quote]

Huh... :?:  That is a statement with [b]NO[/b] basis in the facts of SOL test scores at Freedom Hill and just sadly misinformed "facts" compared to the posted material at

http://schoolprofiles.fcps.edu/schlprfl/f?p=108:18:2705193762234763::::P0_CURRENT_SCHOOL_ID,P18_TESTLEVEL:077,Grade%203  
2010-2011 Percent passing in each grade:
[u]Grade 3[/u]:  Reading - 74.0 History - 80.6 Math - 91.1 Science - 80.9
[u]Grade 4[/u]:  Reading - 93.8 Math - 83.5
[u]Grade 5[/u]  Writing - 91.2 Reading - 87.3 Virginia Studies - 70.3; Math - 95.1; Science - 78.6
[u]Grade 6[/u]:  Reading - 92.2 U.S. History - 83.6 Math - 86.8

Seems pretty strong to me... and Freedom Hill has local level IV AAP services.

As far as AYP is concerned Lemon Road has few than 50 students it each of the subcategories Hispanic, FARMS, ESOL it ends up exempt on these categories for AYP with too few students.  Freedom Hill on the other hand did not meet AYP because the passing rate in categories was in the high 70's and they needed at least 80% to meet the goals. 70% passing, over 80% in many categories is VERY different than saying Freedom Hill has a majority of underperforming kids.
