[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many of the classrooms in title 1 schools are segregated themselves. In my kid's class, the gifted kids are always getting pulled out to join the larger gifted cluster in another class for math etc. Guess who is in the gifted program, all the UMC kids. What is left in the class are the EL and not so smart kids. I know of another school with same issue - hence parents make sure their kids are in the gifted program even if they really are not gifted.

My kid isn't so smart, and I didn't know the game. He is left with a class of kids who need a lot of help and oh man the behavioral issues are insane. No support at home for kids with serious behavioral issues. School can't do anything about it. Teaching is to the bottom.

So did you get your kid tracked into the gifted cluster? Or are they doing just fine in gen pop?[/quote]

They just said they didn’t know to get them into the gifted cluster and aren’t doing fine.[/quote]
