[quote=Anonymous]"AND GUESS WHAT? MOST kids do just great! " passing state tests does not = "doing great". Doing great means maximizing a child's potential to his/her fullest. If your child is stuck in a class that is pitched far below their ability level because the teacher must -as a practical matter - teach to the middle most of the time and focus on pulling up the low end in particular to make sure they don't fail the state tests...well, it's hard to see how that child is going to reach their full potential. That is what us unsatisfied parents in DCC worry about and what grates us about how the DCC schools are run. It is not inevitable - there are certainly ways they could change how classrooms/schools are put together in DCC to make them more acceptable for more families. They just do not WANT to do that it seems. [/quote]
