[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To the PP, it's not quite fair to say the only thing you could do to help kids in poverty is give them new parents. I thought the research was pretty clear on the benefits of putting disadvantaged kids in smaller classes, and in schools not completely full of other disadvantaged kids. [/quote] Yes. Despite what the PP said, throwing money and resources at the problem actually can work.[/quote] But that's what MCPS has been doing till date, and it has not worked. [/quote] The stuff MCPS has been doing to close the achievement gap has not eliminated the achievement gap; therefore the stuff MCPS has been doing to close the achievement gap doesn't work? This is not a logical argument. What would the achievement gap be now if MCPS had not decided to allocate more money and resources to the schools that need it more?[/quote]
