[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The schools are required to educate the ESOL students who are slowing down the classrooms. Actions have consequences. [/quote] I grew up in a pretty low-income area and attended public schools. There were plenty of ESOL and other low-income kids, or low-achievement kids, in our school district. We were tracked -- meaning that students were grouped in to classes based on their academic level, so that smarter students would be in "track 1" and could learn material that was challenging and do so at an appropriately challenging and demanding pace, while "track 2" and "track 3" and "track 4" etc. would each work at their own respective appropriate levels. It's pretty simple. You don't have to teach everyone to the lowest common denominator. [/quote]
