[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a probably half-baked theory (the “Watkins-Stuart Hobson Theory”) that the only high SES parents who are willing to send their kids to the higher-poverty schools are both progressive politically AND have rock star students. There are a lot of politically progressive and higher SES families that have students who struggle more, and I suspect many ifnot most of those families bail because of their academic concerns. Thoughts?[/quote] I'm the Bancroft poster... I don't think anyone knows when their kid is starting preK if they'll be a rock star. But I have seen middle class parents whose kids were having social or learning problems leave the school, and maybe that was the best decision for their child. My impression is that it's the kids who are not geniuses but don't need extra help who do best at our school. [/quote]
