[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are so many posters suggesting that this is a bad thing for affluent families? It isn’t. It merely levels the playing field. It’s not a zero-sum game. [/quote] It doesn’t level the playing field, it creates two very different playing fields. And we must not have the same definition definition of zero sum game. There are apparently acceptable reasons for scoring lower, and unacceptable reasons. It doesn’t change the fact that those with lower scores don’t perform as well. We can spend all day identifying the reasons, but it doesn’t miraculously make a better student. But hey, this is America. High expectations are a thing of the past.[/quote]
