[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]There is no focus on "SES diversity". MCPS has no data on SES, just on whether or not the student qualifies for free and reduced meals, which is a measure of (low) household income.[/quote] Wait...of they do. MCPS publishes[b] percentages of FARMS kids[/b]. The number reported is lower than the actual population in poverty because some students do not submit the forms but MCPS absolutely has the data. [/quote] That is a measure of household income, not socioeconomic status. Plus it's a categorical measure: either your household income is low enough to qualify for free or reduced meals, or it's not. The student from a household of 4 that has an income of $47,000 per year is in the category "not FARMs", just like the student from a household of 4 that has an income of $470,000 per year or even $4,700,000 per year.[/quote]
