[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]but isn't the question, why aren't there enough EXCLUSIVE or TRACKED academically oriented middle school programs? Meaning, "how can I get my child away from poor performers, because having them in class with my child is a problem or at least I assume it is because this is America and race, class, and achievement in America have never not be commingled and confounded?"[/quote] You do realize that the mixing of all social classes in schools/ classrooms does not happen anywhere else in the world, right? It's American to hand-wring about race, class and achievement. Everywhere else the middle and upper classes just pay for private, or else the public schools direct kids of differing abilities ( often tied to family resources, yes ) into different programs in late elementary school. This doesn't go better anywhere else.[/quote]
