[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm 14:12 and I neglected to mention that the white 5th graders also scored 100% passing rate on ALL of their SOL tests as well (math, science, reading).

Looks to me like the ESOL issue is the issue, not the teaching.  [/quote]

[b]True but think of all the wasted resources being burnt up teaching esol to 50% of the students[/b].[/quote]

This remark makes me sick. Heaven forbid your child need any special resources, ever. Would you say the same thing about special needs kids? Or even gifted kids? Arlington probably "wastes" a lot of resources on all those GT and AP kids....

I, for one, am fine with Arlington providing a good, free education to ALL of its students.

Good for you, I won't move to a school with more than 25% FARM, but that's just my opinion. I would rather have my kid be challenged by higher performing student then be one of the higher performing students that is attempting to drag up the low performers.[/quote]
