[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The worries about behavior are overblown a bit.  The reality is that many of the kids in the area don’t have a lot opportunities for enrichment. If anything they love school more than being in a boring house or apartment.  When I taught at Parkland I heard this all the time from students.  That said, many students are way into drama but they basically just feed off eachother.  They leave the smart (boring to them) kids alone and basically completely ignore the out of consortium students.  They biggest complaint from students is when they have to work in a group on a project or presentation.  But you will hear that complaint from students at any middle school in the county for a variety of reasons.[/quote]

The out of consortium parents seem to take over the school/PTA's and are self-segregating and some are even to the point of excluding other out of consortium parents.  The drama is normal at this age as they are trying to figure it all out.  And, how the schools are set up, they have their own separate groups and none seem to be trying to bring everyone together.  That's on the administration and teachers. [/quote]
