[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]it’s interesting how some of you seem to think test scores for some of these kids in low performing schools will somehow magically increase in a new building? Some of the lowest performing schools in the county already have the nicest facilities and top of the line equipment.  The building makes zero difference for actual performance.  [/quote]

I don't think that, but I also don't think the high-achieving students' test scores will go town just by having a few more poor kids in their building. [/quote]

That's not how branding works.  It's the average and low performing kids in the Wooton cluster that will no longer be able distinguish themselves with a brand name.

EG the low performing kids in Wooton will still be low performing kids at Crown, but they will be indistinguishable from just poor families.

I don't even know what to say to that. JFC.[/quote]

Right? I'm also laughing at PP thinking that people are impressed with B/C high school students as long as they come from a "W" school.[/quote]
