[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Should be an opt in program for kids who need it. Not all children need this and there's barely any summer break anymore as it is with all the random teacher work days.[/quote]

As the All-In tutoring program effort showed, it's difficult to get the families of kids - or the kids themselves - who most need the extra services to opt-in. They don't want to miss out on free time any more than the kids who don't need it.[/quote]

So why punish everyone at a school? Maybe there needs to be a more individualized differentiated approach like an IEP instead of a catch all. Sadly it seems like schools are headed the other way. Johnny is struggling to read so all kids have to have two hours of extra phonics and reading support or extra school days. What about the kids performing on grade level and above?! There is nothing left for them. Foreign language and gifted programs have been gutted all in the name of equity. This is just more of the same.[/quote]
