[quote=Anonymous]You obviously do not know the demographics - which are a driving force for why so many high SES families want to be there.  CMI's population is 22% economically disadvantaged, 5.5% English language learners and 11% at-risk.  Anyone who knows anything about these categories knows there is a lot of overlap between them.  CMI is not a title I school - it does not have a significant low-income population.  And, the school is 46% white.  This does not even come close to mirroring the population of public school kids in D.C.  But, I know that for some, having a tiny number of low-income or people of color translates into a diverse community even though that is not accurate.  As for the special education population, this is higher than SOME charters - most notably immersion/bilingual programs.  And, I bet if we scratch the surface, that special ed population is primRily at the lowest level and not really the high-level special needs population that is found in many other schools.  [/quote]
