[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think they would have liked to do it the way they did in Arizona. It's also worth noting that the 8 Arizona schools aren't all high-SES, low minorty. In fact, some of them are in areas with a substantial percentage of hispanics and low-SES students.[/quote] But those aren't urban schools attracting a fair number of students whose families have been on welfare for generations. And the Arizona schools aren't situated in one of the several lowest-performing schools districts in the US. Overall, poor Latino kids have somewhat better home lives than poor AA kids, making it easier for the kids to rise out of poverty. Not much easier, but easier. I'm starting to agree with posters arguing that Basis didn't think it all through... [/quote]
