[quote=Anonymous]If your kid has a learning disability then you need a school where being a year behind is a big deal and you get pull out services. No schools do learning disabilities well, but at a school where the majority of kids are a year or more behind, you will get no help at all. I think most bright kids will do fine academically in any elementary school. They don't need a high performing cohort and they won't be ignored by teachers because they will stand out. But, IMO, kids who have dyslexia or other learning challenges are the ones that NEED a school with a high performing cohort so that they get the attention and resources they'd never get at a school where most kids are also behind.
