[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]The Principal asks the kids to read for 30 minutes each evening instead.

[/b][/quote] Two ways to close the achievement gap: from the top or from the bottom. Guess we know which way this one works.[/quote] I don't think that the principal of Gaithersburg ES said to the parents, "You are not allowed to do any academic work with your child at home besides having the child read for 30 minutes, and if you do it anyway, your child will be expelled."[/quote]
