[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There can be good opportunities to excel at title 1 schools, for the right kid. You have to have a kid that will seek out opportunities for advancement , make their own, take on leadership, and be able to tone out blatant terrible behavior from peers. If daily fights, vaping in halls, locked bathrooms, and hearing the N word 100x per day would bother them, don’t send to a title 1 school. [/quote] This. And it's also okay to accept that your kid is not going to do well in that environment. It's not a merit test. My kid is on the sensitive side and needs encouragement. In a calm environment with supportive teachers and admin, she can really excel. In a chaotic environment where there is a lot of rule/boundary breaking and other deregulated behavior, she becomes anxious, distracted, and afraid to assert herself. We made the choice that would bring out the best in her.[/quote]
