[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The problem is how American schools want to "close the achievement gap". [b]They never think they should increase the length of the school year, or increase the hours in the school day [/b]or make underachieving students (of all races) get intensive tutoring or mentoring. No. Their solution is to create a quota system and have different criteria of selection for different groups, or dumb down the curriculum or make the reporting of grades so general as to be useless. [/quote] Kids in the US are already in school for more hours per year than kids in a lot of other countries.[/quote]
