[quote=Anonymous]Why is it that the parents whose kids are not in the specialized programs are in favor of closing down anything that isn’t Gen Ed? LI and AAP and the few magnet schools have a place in education. They provide options and services for kids that are beneficial. Every parent has the option of applying for LI even if the majority choose not to apply. If a LI school is full; change the lottery so that it only includes kids in the boundary. The LI program at our school starts with a lot more kids in the LI program and ends up with pretty even size classes by 6th grade. The Gen Ed classes are smaller then LI for 4-5 years. I would guess that there are schools where LI classes are smaller then Gen Ed but that has not been our experience. But the attitude that no one gets anything special because the kids in Gen Ed feel left out is pretty pervasive on this board and I don’t understand it. [/quote]
