[quote=Anonymous]OP here. After reading through this thread I think maybe the real issue is not the lack of gifted classes but the fact that too many classes are not even being taught at grade level. It seems that the majority of parents would be content with just standard classes if the remedial students were pulled out and given the signficant amount of attention they need to get to grade level. But its also pretty pathetic that as parents our expectations are so low of DCPS that we just wish that at a minimum they would teach at current grade level. Pie in the sky is anything beyond that. Im intrigued by Catanias proposal to allow for more kids to be held back and I plan to email him that I support that. His rationale is that poor black kids are being hurt by the system but truth is, high SES, high achieving students are being hurt as well.[/quote]
