[quote=Anonymous]"With regard to those low-SES students who don't have family support - I don't see how anyone can find fault in BASIS or any other school where it comes to that. Schools do not have the mission, means, mandate or ability to intervene in students' homes where there is a lack of parental support or where there are other problems - and those students will by and large struggle regardless of the school setting. Those are issues which must be dealt with by other means." Ok, but that's exactly the opposite argument that Rhee/Kamras/Kaya have made over the past 5 years. Rhee said all it takes is a rockstar teacher and all will be well. And she and now Kaya have fired many, many teachers on this principal. If a low SES child fails to perform, it is the fault of the teacher. The whole IMPACT system is predicated on this "fact." I'm just saying.[/quote]
