[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] "stay to help" ..... How much do you really think families can help alter the curriculum of a school? Seaton PTO is excellent at community building, but the families don't do anything that will impact the test scores and the in-class experience.[/quote]

+1. Old principal wanted upwards differentiation. New principal doesn't. It's a policy choice and it isn't up to the parents. I don't know what "help" you think can happen. What was once a strong academic school for advanced kids is no longer, on purpose.[/quote]

Yes, thank you. This is the point I was trying to make. We experienced the old principal, when Seaton had the highest math growth scores in the city, and there were hardly any families "helping" and my kids in-class experience was awesome.[b] Under the new principal, total lack of differentiation and high expectations.[/b] But plenty of "helpers" at school![/quote]

That's how they close the achievment gap and why parents paying attention spring away from those schools.[/quote]
