[quote=Anonymous][quote] It may be mutually reinforcing. At schools with "good families and students with high SES," you may find less teacher burnout and more experienced teachers. The curriculum may be the same on paper, but students may process information more quickly, allowing teachers to explore topics in more depth. The principal may not have to spend as much or his or her time worrying about SOL results and able to focus on other initiatives. So be "irked" if you want to, but people will continue to search out "good schools," looking at objective measures of performance as one proxy for schools with families that care about education. [/quote] Kids in these schools have had books read to them from a young age. Their parents will be sure they get to school every day. It is unlikely that a six year old will be kept home to watch the baby. [/quote]
