[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I want to respond to a couple of things the pp said. 1) being friends with black and Hispanic kids doesn’t mean your child won’t want to go to college. Lots of them want to go to college. And children of educated and well-off families don’t decide to drop out because a girl in their math class did. 2) This one is counterintuitive but so true and literally came from the mouth of my middle schooler: [b]if you want your student to behave well and study and be serious, put them in a school where there is a cohort of some kids who do this... and also a cohort of kids who don’t. They see why it’s a really bad idea to blow off school, dropnout, etc., and they develop an identity that they are the good students, the serious ones. [/b][/quote] Apparently you've never heard of kids from good families falling in with a bad crowd. [/quote]
