[quote=bearishgurl][quote=pjwal]Can someone explain to my why a school like Poinsettia Elementary in Carlsbad lists 90 of 299 students as socioeconomically challenged?
What exactly defines that status? That seems rather high for an area like La Costa Greens.[/quote]
pjwal, aren’t there some Section 8 apt. complexes within the City of Carlsbad?
Don’t exactly know where this school is, but are there still a couple of small trailer parks in Leucadia and/or Cardiff? Does this school district bus any of its students?
Have all the migrant farm-worker camps around there been cleaned up? Where do these farm workers live now? Perhaps on their employers’ land, in trailers?
The name “Poinsettia” is a red flag to me. Where are all the poinsettia greenhouses relative to this school??
IMHO, NO PUBLIC SCHOOL in CA (except perhaps those schools situtated within covenants whose district DOES NOT bus into them) is immune to disadvantaged children attending it.[/quote]
