[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes we are fooling ourselves if we thing our kid is getting the best in a class filled with 25 other students....over and over again it is shown that smaller class sizes are better. We are getting good but not the best. The only way it would be better is based on class size and it is not happening. My kid is doing fine but don't think for a moment that he would do even better in a smaller class that can differentiate! It is how it is and why the folks pay the big bucks. [/quote] +1! If DC is one of 25 (6,7, ...) and s/he's weak in reading, S/he'll more likely get overlooked for an even weaker classmate. Conversely, if s/he is strong in math, there most likely won't be time to give him/her more advanced work.[/quote] What school has 25+ kids in a class? Only one teacher? Which grade? The biggest class we ever had was 19 students and two teachers at a charter.[/quote]
