[quote=Anonymous]I'd have agreed with you a few years back. But now that my kid has hit an advanced grade at her DCPS ES in a gentrifying neighborhood, I totally disagree with you. Her school doesn't exactly knock it out the park on educating easy-to-educate kids, let alone the at-risk variant. There are too many inexperienced teachers, too many classroom and playground disruptions, and little in the way of academic challenge for the brightest students. The two or three at-risk students in her class suck up a disproportionate share of the teachers' time and focus - the already-crowded school doesn't seem equipped to address their needs effectively. In a high capacity public school system, bring on the at-risk students. In this one, no thanks. [/quote]
