[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's possible the ELC for all schools are at schools where most of the students qualified for the CES lottery? I hope that's true. [/quote]

There are no such schools. It's only the top 15%. For most to qualify, it would be top 50%.

Top 15% of who?  Just that school or of the county.  The school seems silly.  One schools top 15% could be vastly different than another.  [/quote]

They group schools by SES level (percentage of students receiving FARMs) and then take the top 15 percent of students from those groups and put them in a lottery for CES. Anyone who isn't in CES is guaranteed ELC at their home school. But there are also kids who were not in the CES lottery who are offered ELC, particularly in low-FARMs school where the lottery cutoff is very high (above 85th percentile nationally). So there are indeed schools where most students demonstrate a need for enrichment, even if most students are not in the CES lottery.[/quote]
