[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The kids at the Greentree group home either have no alive parents, no parents in the picture, parents in jail, or something in between. Not saying that they are well behaved - at all - but if you completely give up on them at 14 or 15 years old, then you’re just setting them up for failure in the future. Putting all of these kids plus others with similar circumstances into one school won’t help. The amount of teaching at that school will be next to none. Sending them to the best public school in the state isn’t a bad idea on paper, having them in a community with very smart well behaved children. The issue is that they aren’t being forced to go to class, do their work, etc. Not every kid from the group home is bad, either. I’m sure there are kids who are good students trying to learn. Somehow they have to be incentivized to do their work and be better students. Having all the kids from this home at one school seems to be issue #1. Maybe find a way to split these kids up, not having too many at one school. Split them up at Churchill, WJ, Wootton, Poolesville, RM, BCC, ETC and there will be less conflict already. [/quote] No you don’t split them up. That is their home and they go to the home school. That is not an accurate description of these kids family lives and reality is if they are there most of the adults have failed them. [/quote]
