[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To 1:43 - I think your correct point is too subtle for DCUM.

They can’t imagine how their kid’s education can be good if others aren’t excluded. [/quote]

Imagine for a moment that the underlying facts asserted are true and this has nothing to do with race or SES.  Some of the kids in a classroom have demonstrated academic strengths and can absorb, retain, process and engage on the subject matters at a very high level (e.g., reading at a college level) at the age of 14 and other students in the same class read at a 5th grade level and cannot (or have no interest in) engage in in depth discussions.  How do you think these students can be served well by the same teacher in the same classroom?  Does it serve either of them?  How are we to improve if ulterior motives are assigned to asking the question?

In reality, what are the numbers at Wilson? Are we talking most kids at or above level and and 5 kids in the room are being given the opportunity to struggle to keep up with them? Or the reverse?[/quote]
