[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]About 20% at our high FARMS, Title I school.  This means about 40% of the non ESOL, non FARMS kids are found eligible for AAP.  [/quote]

Wha abuts the ESOL and/or FARMS students that were also found eligible?  [/quote]
Very few were found eligible.  I don't see why this is so surprising.  Most of the AAP kids seem to be white or Asian and at least average socioeconomic status.    [/quote]

Not at my DC's center.  There seems to be a fair number of kids in AAP who are from families with parents who are recent African immigrants. [/quote]

All first gen white collar immigrants behave the same way.. They want good education for their kids and push them into AAP.  They believe that their kids will manage and thrive in AAP regardless of whether or not they "qualify".  This includes Africans.  However, these kids have a HUGE advantage when it comes to college.  They will check the African American box, have great grades and get into any top school of their choosing.  Good for thhem.  [/quote]

PP again.. Typical ESOL/FARMS kids are Latino or those that came in on refugee status. [/quote]
