[quote=Anonymous]This subject reminded me of a frightening trend I have now seen at the schools discussed regularly on this site: African-American boys being counseled out. Boys seem to struggle with sitting with their hands in their lap as it is, add sports and competition and a natural tendency to need to move and they are set-up for little room to grow. This matched with overly effected parents and, in some cases, teachers who don't have a handle on how to work with boys. I don't know why, but the first to be moved out are the AA boys. I have seen six in early grades over three schools in the past four years. That's an alarming rate.[/quote]
