[quote=Anonymous]I teach in a title 1 school with a low rating. We have a lot of needy kids. But, we have about 20% of our kids who are extremely high achieving (as in, they rival my own children). And we have about 30-40% who are right on level. So yes, we still have about half our students who are low, some extremely so, but at our school your kids would have academic peers and then some. Not all title 1 schools are full of the super low kids. Fwiw, I'd send my own kids to the school I teach at in a heartbeat. We live in a different suburb, so that's not possible, but I'd do it if it was. The only way you can ever reallllllllly know what a school is like is to have a very close relationship with someone who teaches in the school. Parents have some idea, but it is the teachers who can really tell you....except they can't. [/quote]
