[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^Why don't you start with the DC-CAS? Nearly one-quarter of Latin students fail, meaning that they can barely read or do arithmatic, although they land in the same MS classes as kids working at a college level. Are one-quarter of the 6th graders, those failing the CAS, prevented from advancing to 7th grade? Hardly, my sources tell me that the kept-back rate is not even 5%. My kid, no genius or nose to the grindstone type either, scored 95% and 100% on the 3rd and 4th grade CAS tests respectively. We checked out both Latin and BASIS but are heading to a private for 6th. No confidence in the system past elementary, where uber educated parents virtually run the best schools. [/quote] What is your beef with "uber educated" parents??? Would not educated parents be a benefit to the school?? I am still of the mind though that it is really the school's job to make itself a good school.[/quote]
