[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who cares about the colleges ATS kids get into? [b]ATS is doing the best by low income and english language learners. [/b]Unfortunately APS doesn't track how ATS kids perform against their peers once they get to MS, but it would be helpful to know if they have a stronger foundation. [/quote] The most recent Friday 5 email highlighted ATS's multicultural night. Apparently 17% of the school population is Mongolian, which is so disproportionate to the APS student population at large that it has to be through VPI and sibling preference instead of the general lottery. This is not the same low income/English learner population as somewhere like Carlin Springs. Once again, Most of ATS's results are due to the self-selecting population vs a special curriculum.
