[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Hmmph. Simply put there is afterteaching in aware households. STA teaches kids to write and has small class sizes. Practical instruction in math and science. The older kids who actually play sports on an intense level at STA have no time for afterschooling so you know the teaching is good. the meatheads are successful....a pun on the Sidwellian outlook.[/quote] Hey, NW D.C. has 2 distinctions of households: the "aware households" and by elimination -- the "unwaware households". Please define this new demographic term? [/quote] I'm using "aware" instead of high socio-economic. It is not unique to NW DC. Some parents put their trust in Everyday Math. Some went along with whole language for reading and no explicit phonics. Others made up for the instructional deficits outside of school. Simple concept. [/quote]
