[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I appreciate it just was wondering what is so special in the schools that have high rankings. I was wondering foreign language exposure, etc.. I would be driving myself crazy trying to have my child in everything. Just want her to be exposed and have a chance.[/quote] Many of the kids come from families that value education and take time to work with their children outside of the home. Many people want to send their kids to the "best" schools for social reasons, because they are concerned about the other kids at "lesser" schools," whether that's for language, culture, SES, or safety reasons. There are good teachers everywhere. But the resources are limited, and if there are a lot of other issues teachers need to deal with, they often are not as successful challenging kids academically.[/quote]
