[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is hard for me to understand how fewer than 10-20% of students could be proficient in math and English in elementary school, but that's the case with a sizable portion of the schools in neighborhoods where I can afford to live in DC. How do kids get that far behind where they are supposed to be for their age? Is it the schools themselves? Is it the parents? Is it something else about their environment? What an incredibly sad state of affairs. [/quote] The answer is easy: look at their parents. Schools can educate, but they can't perform miracles.[/quote]
