[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If nothing else, let's look at the discussions earlier about how S.A. schools spend all kinds of extra time prepping for SOLs that the N.A. schools don't. People here are complaining about being "stuck" (which you're not) in S.A. schools where their kids have to sit through all of this unnecessary-for-them prep that the "other" kids need to pass. That's happening because those kids, for whatever reason, really need that extra time working on the fundamentals in order to grasp them. You can try to dismiss it as "SOL prep," but really it's extra time spent on helping those kids learn the skills [i]they need to master in order to succeed[/i]. You don't want your kid to be burdened with it, so you want everyone to be bused around to create schools that do well enough on the SOLs without all of that prep. Nevermind the harm that would cause to the kids who do need it, because all that matters is your kid.

It's really rich to hear you all trashing N.A. parents as only caring about their own kids when you're no different.[/quote]
No. That’s a bunch of crap. Those kids would benefit from a deeper and more enriching learning environment.[/quote]
