And you can get up to date test scores (2014-15) on learndc.org - but not on the DCPS profile pages.

you really can't tell too much about FARMs rates at most schools because DC uses the community eligibility option and lists schools as 99% FARMs if they fall above a certain threshold. At-risk percentage is more helpful anyway, as the kids who qualify for that tend to be poorer (FARMs has a much higher income threshold than TANF or SNAP eligibility; the other at-risk categories are homelessness and foster care)

But that is 2014-15 data and OP wants 2015-16.

OSSE controls the release of this data. You can see the most current available for each charter and DCPS on learndc.org

I mean, ideally over 50%, but minimum of 40%. Do any fit the bill?


I'm the OP and I didn't write this post.
I also fully expected this thread to take this exact turn, but I do want the info I asked for. Obviously it isn't about skin color, because I'd be living elsewhere, like a tiny condo west of the park (you don't need to move to Wisconsin). I am, however, interested (OMG Every parent is interested, give me a break), in FARMS rates as an indicator of extreme poverty, and of the proportion of resources that the school will generally be able to dedicate to teaching my child versus dealing with all issues related to extreme poverty.


No, really, you need to move to a tiny condo west of the park.

I'm really hoping that response was a troll. If not, in agreement with PP^^.
