[quote=Anonymous]A big reason why the performance of poor kids improves is because those middle and upper income families have their voices heard and can lobby for the things needed to make a school successful. It is no secret that the voices of the poor are largely ignored in this country. Why would we think the school system is different? Without trying to integrate schools by SES, the only other option I see is for more people to lobby for quality public school education across the board. That will never happen though because as you can see from this board that many feel that the more exclusive the school the better leg up they can give their child. See the discussions of the "others" coming into their good school cluster. [/quote]
