[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Same issues in LCPS. We're at a title 1 school and most of the parents just don't care. They don't care about behavior, they don't care about scores and they don't care about what their kids are learning. The other 1/3 of the school is middle class and cares deeply about all of that and is constantly upset at the school, admin, and teachers about what's not being taught. I think most schools don't have differences as stark as our school, but it's still there. Year after year, teachers can't make it through the curriculum or teach to the grade level. Which just isn't fair to students who could be doing grade level appropriate work. Obviously the answer is differentiated classrooms (because the current system is failing everyone), but that's not politically feasible. [/quote] You're a terrible person. You are equating poverty and lack of resources in the home with not "caring." Shame on you.[/quote] Mississippi is getting good results with low income families. Incomes in the state are much lower than in Fairfax County. Mississippi has introduced standards and a focus on the basics and will hold children back if need be.[/quote]
