[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm wondering if there is a correlation between a rise in aggression in DCPS classrooms and DCPS's push to decrease paying for private placements. Many of the private schools are for emotional/behavioral challenges and those students are by far the most expensive to educate b/c they need such a low teacher/student ratio for safety reasons. [/quote] Not sure there is a rise in aggression. Pretty sure there is a rise in parents who were raised in wealthy, mostly suburban school districts trying out DCPS and being surprised about the experiences and needs of some of their kids' classmates. [/quote] Is this the soft bigotry of low expectations? Or do you honestly believe that parents from wealthy, mostly suburban school districts are the only ones with an expectation of good behavior and urban parents can't do any better?[/quote]
