[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids with uneducated parents come to school unprepared. Kids from dysfunctional homes have chronic behavioral issues that teachers cant handle. Parents don't want this type of peer group for their kids since they bring nothing to the table.[/quote]

All I'm seeing a lot of excuses to justify continued segregation that results in some kids getting a lesser education than others.[/quote]

My theory is that MCPS is failing *all* students, but parents in wealthier districts spend a ton of time and money supplementing so it isn't noticed.  I'm not blaming teachers, mind you.  Most teachers my kids have had work really hard within the set parameters.  But the curriculum sucks, and based on a different thread on this board, I've concluded that math teachers are trained to let kids "figure it out." ' Nice in theory, but most don't.  In some schools, it seems like they do because either parents teach them at home or they hire tutors.  In other districts, this doesn't happen and the kids fall farther and farther behind.[/quote]
