[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a relatively new phenomenon. actually. I went to one of the said G&T NYC High Schools in the late '70s/early '80s. There was a sizeable population of black and brown students back then in addition to Asian and white students...about 30 %. [b]Elementary in lower-income areas needs to stop teaching to the lowest common denominator and parents need to support their children's education...not expect the teachers to carry the burden of raising their kids!. [/b] Things were different back then...parents took a more active role in their children's education and none of the awful behaviors I see in the schools now was tolerated allowing the higher achievers in all demographics to actually learn! [/quote] The problem is, you can never say this out loud. [/quote]
