[quote=Anonymous][quote]Class size shows much less educational impact in hs than in lower ES where it is more important. A 1st trade teacher is still tying shows and reminding kids to wash hands in addition to teaching.[/quote] Yes, if you look at the overall number of students that can achieve the average or baseline score on the standardized test. If this is your goal, then sure, packing in 30, 50 or 100 kids into one class with no teacher feedback is just fine. It doesn't prepare kids for the writing demands in college.The goal in MCPS though is to prepare kids for community college where classes are far easier so it may not matter in the end. [/quote]
