[quote=Anonymous]One of the PPs nailed it - many kids at title 1 schools simply have low IQ. It is exacerbated by lack of exposure (never heard of penguins) but even if they are told some facts about, say, avocadoes, they can’t retain them even for a few minutes or maybe they just don’t understand. So even if they get individualized attention they won’t be able to succeed in the traditional sense. They are made to learn pretty abstract stuff and they just don’t care. They think about money, their trinkets, relationships. They have zero interest in how the world works outside of that. Signed, Someone who works 1:1 with title 1 students[/quote]
