[quote=Anonymous]People can judge all they want but if you don't think there is a difference in low SES kindergarten and low SES high school you live in a fantasy land (and certainly don't live in DC). I have been in DC for fifteen years, worked in every ward of this city and lived in three "transitional" nieghborhoods.  I am fine sending my kid to majority minority elem school.  Sure there is rowdiness but thats the extent of it.  DC socially promotes all kids, doesn;t matter if they can read or not etc.  So what do you think that same classroom starts to look like by 10th grade? You have kids repeating and are two years older than the rest of the class, that same rowdy 6 year old has now had another 10 years of NON Parenting or intervention and is carrying a gun to school, telling the teach to fuck off, still can't read, disrupts the class, gangs are part of school culture etc... really, people don't get this and have to ask on a post what the difference is between elem school and high school?
