[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 7yo DS is a nice kid, doesn't cause any problems and listens to the teacher. DS's FCPS Alexandria school is 30% free lunch/ESOL. He has 27 kids in his class. DS is a bright kid but probably not gifted. I feel like he is completely ignored in his class. I don't know if this is unique to his class or school or if it will be the same everywhere for a well behaved non-troublemaker who isn't profoundly gifted. I don't know if things will change if we move to Arlington or Mclean, deemed better schools. I would like to move to Arlington for closer proximity to work and smaller class sizes. Mclean has nicer curb appeal but I believe class sizes are even bigger.[/quote] What does the 30% free lunch and ESOL have to do with him? So you are saying because the school is 30% Hispanic or poor (in your post you seem to conflate the two) your child is not made to feel special enough? What do you want them to do? Make him star of the week every week? [/quote]
