[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The view that its a good idea to hold all the MS kids back for half a year so the kids who are behind can catch up is one of the reasons why DCPS is failing our kids [/quote] Research shows that schools fail our children if they accelerate them when they are not ready for that. I appreciate Hardy math teachers do not rush to accelerate kids based on a 2 hour math test on day 1 of school.[/quote] They are screwing the prepared kids out of 1/2 year of pre-algebra that kids of other schools get. On what planet is that a good idea? Planet some-kids-are-slow-so-lets-screw-the-rest? (Planet DCPS, for short)[/quote] +1. Why educate the smart kids when it is so much more equitable to hold them below their potential?[/quote]
