[quote=Anonymous]The conversation has been so heavily focused on HS and college, when fixing the crisis really begins in early childhood. Universal Pre-K for starters and then stop social promotion. It may feel too close to tracking, but clustering kids of similar knowledge levels and/or ability in the classrooms. I know there's a lot of concern that it disempowers kids of color or boys, but focusing on foundational skills should be the educational priority. There will always be some students at the top and some lagging, but the baseline of literacy (including grammar and writing) and mathematical skills shouldn't continue to be lowered.[/quote]
