[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The truth is that this is not some Holy Grail that has never been studied or solved. We know what works, but implementation at scale is hard and there's no political will: At the ES level: * Universal pre-K * Wraparound services for families * 3rd grade retention * Early intervention for learning differences * Alternative programs for at-risk kids, with a goal of reintegration * Vocational programs, and conversely, accelerated programs without gatekeeping[/quote] 3rd grade retention will not help and hurt kids self esteme. If kids get to third grade and are struggling and MCPS did not provide support, MCPS should be held accountable not the kids. The BOE cut vocational programs this year. They also in the past cut most of the alternative programs. Parents have to sue for help.[/quote]
