[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s good to know some consider the inequities so tolerable.  [/quote]

I guess I don’t know if I see that much inequity from school to school.  Yes, some have better educated students but that isn’t because of what the schools do or don’t offer.  Children are being “educated” every moment they live and breathe because that is what it means to have such an impressionable and plastic brain.  Parents are a kid’s first teachers and they act as life-long teachers.  Children from families whose parents don’t have the time, resources, skills, or knowledge to teach them are almost always going to be “behind.”  They haven’t had the kind of “private tutoring” that their more fortunate peers have from their parents.  Classroom teachers can’t substitute or compensate for that lack given their workload and the number of children they are responsible for.[/quote]

I'm not sure what the PP would like to see happen.  Some vague, "equitable" plan - when the schools offer the same classes and curriculum to all.[/quote]
