[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Sorry, I don't mean to be rude but I think you are making a silly (frankly stupid IMHO) distinction between school and student body. When people talk "good" schools or "bad" schools, they are talking about the quality of student body. So, in that sense, those two are the same. [/quote] I agree that when people talk about "good schools" and "bad schools", they are actually talking about the SES of the student body. (Not the "quality" of the student body, please. Affluent kids are not higher-quality than non-affluent kids.) But this is reductive thinking. We all know that there are schools with affluent students and lousy teachers and administrators, as well as schools with poor students and outstanding teachers and administrators. Which is the good school, and which is the bad one?[/quote]
