[quote=Anonymous]"continued" ... more advanced classes for that group of kids (includinig those already at the school), and by pulling them out of some more academically heterogeneous classes teachers can give the children who remain in those classes more attention. So it can be win/win. They aren't advertised b/c of the perceived negative stigma among independent school professionals, but that may change over time. They also may not be advertised for the same reason not all employers announce who received bonuses or how much. Feelings can be hurt, parents can disagree over which kid is more or less worthy of the merit aid, etc. All are perfectly valid and real. In a perfect world, I too wish all these things were public and transparant, but just because they are not does not mean there is anything nefarious going on. Schools -- like people --have to deal with a lot of competing considerations. [/quote]
