[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How long are you going to be hiding behind that "homogenous population" excuse? I also truly believe that you can take your advantaged white kids and they will not test as well as their counterparts abroad. I went to high school abroad and college here so I'm speaking from my experience. Besides all millions national tests, I wish they'd drop the multiple choice for awhile. My kids moves right to left, up and down on the page and still misses to fill in some circles. Doesn't even read all of them, just runs through them. Can't retell a story coherently (2nd grade,WoTP great school), hasn't had to memorize a poem. What do they do in school for 6 hours?! 6 hours is a long time to learn nothing... [/quote] Exactly. We had to move our child to private so he could learn to write and show his work, not just fill in circles.[/quote]
