[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Throwing resources at low performers absolutely will lift them up. And if your kid is really a high performers, they will be a high performer with or without resources. [/quote]
We don't have an infinite amount of resources though.    And why should high performers be ignored? Making the magnets all regional is ignoring the very high performers.

FWIW, I grew up lower income and went to an awful school. [/quote]

It benefits everyone in society if schools can get low performers to graduate. You can’t get a job without a diploma and health insurance comes with a job.

High performers figure it out. [/quote]

I have a low performer. He has an IEP and gets a ton of help.  It is great.

[b]I have a general ed kid. She gets ignored.[/b]  She is not AAP.  If she got equal amount of attention my low performer is getting she’d be amazing.

Everyone should get the same. Even high performers.

I want Every person to be their best!
Please someone cure cancer, make world
Peace!  We need good smart people to be there for the lower performers. We all do better.

But hey - let everyone figure it out for themselves.  [/quote]

This is your fault. Get her an IEP. [/quote]
