[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I kinda wonder if the same problem won't occur at a private school. Are they also set up to provide lots of help to the "gifted" and not much to the "bright regular" types?[/quote] My kid is in private and we prefer it. Here's how it works. Prospects are screened, if you have a history of not cooperating in class (outside of academic performance) based on teacher recommendations then you maybe dropped as a candidate. If you do get in and they find out you're trouble the kick you out. So my kids is able to get as much as they willing to without the usual distractions. And it's not FARMS that creates an unlearning environment. I saw issues in my mostly non farms classroom. Public school teachers all around spend a lot of their time managing snowflakes and their parents. Schools cannot teach your kid everything academic they need to know these days, that's your responsibility. [/quote] What's a snowflake ?[/quote]
