[quote]Brian, I live in Chula Vista, which, incidentally, has MUCH higher scores for the “Hispanic” population than these other “coveted” schools can seem to muster. [/quote]
It’s pure socioeconomic status, silly. It works like this.
980: upper middle/upper class Asians
900: middle class Asians
?: lower class Asians (do we have any in San Diego?)
970: upper middle/upper class whites (e.g. Torrey Pines Elementary, Rancho Santa Fe Elementary, Curie Elementary)
850: middle class whites
780: white trash
880: upper middle class hispanics (Bonita, Eastlake)
800: middle class hispanics
700: lower class hispanics/foreign born
