[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does it seem like center schools have a lot more of their second graders going into AAP than regular old schools?[/quote]

Yes.  Louise Archer past few years has about 30%-35% of second graders go on to AAP for third.  I don’t know if more people refer at center schools, more people prep or what?[/quote]

I really would love to see some stats on applications. I suspect that more parents refer from Centers because more parents are aware of the program. I suspect that more higher income families parent refer because they want their child in the "best" program or see AAP as a status symbol.

Break out by school, what percent of kids are in-pool based on test scores.
Break out by school, what percent of kids are parent referred.
Break out by school, what percent of kids appeal the decision.

I doubt that we will see those stats because it would more likely point to the fact that higher SES families are engaged and active with AAP and schools associated with high FARM and ESOL rates are not engaged. [/quote]

Yes, this would be fascinating and eye-opening. [/quote]

Agree. Is there a way to do a FOIA about this?[/quote]
