[quote=Anonymous]You're painting with too broad a brush, PP. Brent has so few poor kids left (around 5% FARMs/At-Risk this year, around two dozen kids) that the data collection people aren't seeing nearly enough low SES PARCC scores from Brent to have a representative sample. Most of these kids are the children of parents who grew up in the evil Ellen Wilson project on I St. that came down in the late 90s, then were rehoused in mixed-income townhouses on the site. These are families that have struggled with multi-generational poverty. By contrast, LT's at-risk population is more diverse. Most of the AA kids are Brent are now the children of professionals and successful entrepreneurs, same as for those of other races. The principal of 18 months isn't too blame for PARCC scores from any quarter.[/quote]
