[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can someone explain to me the issues the schools have that make a school untenable by 2nd grade when it was great in ECE? Is it simply that the UMC kids leave by then or is there something else going on? [/quote] Behavior. Fighting. [/quote] This is a big part of it. A kid with behavior issues in K might be cracking jokes, showing up late, refusing to do work. Frustrating for the teacher but won't actually impact other kids that much. A kid with a behavior problem in 3rd or 4th grade might be threatening other kids, talking about killing people, hitting and kicking, throwing things, etc. As kids get older, the problems get bigger and more dramatic.[/quote]
