[quote=Anonymous]It matters, but my opinion, based on having kids in several different Hill elementaries, is that what matters most is behavioral issues. It's difficult to teach in a class where there are varying achievement levels, but it's well near impossible to teach in a class where kids are persistently misbehaving, which is related to school culture. (See e.g. https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/lifestyle/magazine/2003/04/06/passfail/12f415f3-db0a-4678-952a-88e375992ba3/) If kids are generally well behaved and there is a cohort (say 1/4-1/3 of the class) of high-achieving students, things should be fine even if some kids struggle.
