[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I need to do what other here have tried to do and once again put out there that it is extremely problematic that Latin is not doing well by its middle-class, non-at risk student of color population. What is up with that? Totally unacceptable.[/quote] Maybe the school isn’t doing well by any group, but UMC white families are doing a lot of extra supplementing to stay on grade level. That was certainly the dirty little secret at our old school. [/quote] How are learning challenges factored in? Do any of of these MC black families self select Latin because it's a small school? Which schools did they come from previously compared to the white kids and how were they prepared there? Also, how much reading and supplementing in the home (as above)? Last, why do we care so much about these awful tests that are inherently biased anyway?[/quote]
