[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The admissions office only considered if a child was self-identified as ELL. FARMS is also self-reported. No one ever verifies and school systems are actually prohibited from verifying. Two of the “experience” factors rely on self-reporting. Great. [/quote] FCPS bestows an ESOL label on any child who lives in a household where ANY other language is spoken. In theory, a child whose younger sibling has a foreign nanny will be counted as ESOL. Them's the rules.[/quote] I agree that parents were just following the rules as set by FCPS. It’s on FCPS to create better rules. Given that Curie (according to several posts) got at least 90 seats in the class of 2025, I am very skeptical that the numbers of FARMS and ESOL are actually the disadvantaged children that the changes were trying to help. What a mess. [/quote]
