[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Shocking red doing better than blue on education. Equity will always lower the bar. Equal opportunity and discipline offer the ability to raise the bar. [/quote] Um, equity is the same thing as equal opportunity…. But not if you are used to extra opportunity.[/quote] Equity is the same as meeting student needs. But, the "needs" cannot be that other students are dragged down to the lowest performing students level because they cannot compete and it hurts the feelings of low performers. Equity means that the school gives at least a very comprehensive, rigorous, robust grade level world class education to everyone - but there should be no ceiling to what individual kids or cohorts who are capable of learning more can learn in the school. Differentiation should be encouraged. [/quote]
