[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We mustn't confuse high performance with high test scores. Schools are there to do more than simply educate our kids. [b] Schools must also function as a springboard to create societal change. [/b] If a school does that, it can be considered high performing even if test scores are low. [/quote] Please don't consider realizing your social ideology as part of the schools responsibility. The schools are there to educate our kids. That's it. [/quote] When the schools educate our kids -- all of our kids - that creates societal change.[/quote] We are talking about what schools are supposed to do, not what effects schools could have. To say: "Schools are there to do more than simply educate our kids." is trying to put extra burden on the schools. Schools are not there to do anything other than educating our kids. That's it.
