[quote=Anonymous]You will see lots more Maury families try for Latin and BASIS as of next school year. Nobody wants to say it, but the bad news Eliot-Hine feeder is only half the retention problem in the upper grades! The rest of the story is race and poverty. Many white/high-SES parents aren't going to let their children sit in classes where most of the other kids are black and poor. So they leave even before 4th, keeping their reasons to themselves. I'd give it another 5 years before this changes! [/quote]
