[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]can SB reduce class size only for low-performing schools? make them significantly smaller so kids get enough attentions?[/quote] Title 1 schools are supposed to have small class sizes. That's partially why some of these school's scores started improving. That was the case at my local elementary. The crowding in all of Arlington is not good, but in these schools with high levels of poverty and English learners, it's much more dysfunctional. If the county can keep the class sizes small, most people won't have as much of a problem. [/quote] can SB make it even smaller than what title 1 requires, like significantly smaller, say ~ 15 in lower grades? [/quote] It becomes a problem of classroom space. I suppose they could have classes as small as 5 or 6 if they were inclined, but where would each class be taught? We've got kids shoved into trailers as it is.[/quote]
