[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The white/asian students especially boys behave as poorly as the black/latino boys in earlier grades and receive similar amount of discipline and complaint. They become much better in 4-5th grades. Parenting seems playing a role at least partially. [/quote] 4-5th grade is also when more enrichment is introduced like compacted math. If, as the article says, white students are three grades ahead on average, then behavior improves as the classwork begins to match ability. Perhaps one answer is more appropriate curriculum for all levels (differentiation), so that students won't be too bored (either because it's too easy or because it's too hard) to act out. But then I guess there would be articles criticizing MCPS for putting more minority students in remedial classes... [/quote]
