[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pick a path to offer advanced offerings. Either be Humanities or STEM focused as a school. I just think more families would be interested. Of course, some don't want the pressure and they'll move on. We didn't freak out about HS. We welcomed the process and enjoyed it. [/quote] The more a k-8 differentiates, the more parents of kids who are on bottom tracks wonder if they are getting their money's worth. I would not want to be applying to high schools and having to explain why my kid was on the third of three tracks in english [/quote] "Your kid can't have challenging work because we need to conceal other kids' low performance" is not going to be a compelling argument to retain people.[/quote] Neither is "We've educated your kid since K, but did a bad job so they're now on the third track. Please continue to pay tuition even though we've tracked your kid out of the high schools you want them to attend" [/quote]
