[quote=Anonymous]Name the school and you might get more helpful input. Fwiw, my nephew attends a title 1 elem in Silver Spring. He is literally the only white kid in his class, and he is one of only a few non-farms kids. He is thriving academically. There are only 15 kids in his class, and he is doing math and reading well above grade level. He will likely end up in a magnet for ms. Socially, it's a different story. He doesn't have many good friends at school. Here's what I mean by that: none of the kids from his class play sports in the same league (not cheap) or go to ccd at the local catholic elem. So that's one of the major differences I see when comparing his elem experience to my kid's experience. And, the number of kids with serious issues (behavioral) is significantly different when comparing my nephews title 1 school to my neighborhood school. Both schools have kids with issues, but the percentage is very different.[/quote]
