bg why is the api lower at gage? i wasnt picking on gage for any particular reason. i think many of the kids there will do fine. why might those two schools be different teachers? parents? students(ie esol)?

API seems to be inversely correlated to Participants in Free or Reduced-Price Lunch %
Miramar Ranch is at 10%, Gage is 47%
English learners metrics is less reliable. EL students have low API in low income areas, but 153 EL students at Stone Ranch scored 947 API.
