[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where are the parents in all of this?[/quote] It’s gross exaggeration by parents who have never sent their kids to these schools and are spreading unsubstantiated gossip. Does it actually seem realistic that schools just skip big chunks of the standard curriculum for years on end? Of course not. If a cohort seems particularly crappy at test taking, then I’m sure they spend more time on test taking skills and prep. But that doesn’t mean that that’s ALL they do or that the advanced group is stuck doing the same thing. As with all matters, take what you read on DCUM with a very large grain of salt.[/quote] It may be an exaggeration since a lot of the “teaching to test” schools still have very bad scores.[/quote]
