[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Great story! It seems the math instructor is a real gem as well. ~All 21 of Yom’s AP Calculus students who took the exam last year passed; 17 got the highest score of 5. It was the third year in a row that all of Yom’s kids passed the test. [/quote] And this from a GS rated 6 school. GS shows the school has 73% Hispanic; 25% Asian. No black or white kids. Whopping 85% FARMS rate. ELL 20%. Goes to show, ratings don't show the whole picture. [b]As long as the teachers are great[/b], and you want to learn, you can have a great education. [/quote] Well, yes. But what if they aren't? What if they're just regular human beings? An education policy for poor kids that relies on teachers being great and putting in tons of extra hours is an education policy that will fail.[/quote]
