[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] The answer is universal pre-k, late school closing and year round school. Any gap in the school schedule is an opportunity for parents to widen the socio - economic and racial gap for their own kids by supplementing privately. There shouldn’t be that gap in the system:[/quote] +1 In lower performing schools, this is what is needed. You need more time with those kids. I believe there are two MCPS ES with high FARMS rate where they are experimenting with a lengthened school calendar. Not sure how long this has been happening. Will be interesting to see the outcome.[/quote] There is a teacher shortage. The kids in classrooms are very disruptive. Restorative justice is penalizing teachers and students who want to study. If your education system is so broken, what kind of teachers are we producing? The problem is not that many children are below grade level. The problem is that children who are on grade level and above are not being educated either at school. The first order of the day should be that kids who are bright and capable of being educated should be removed from classrooms with low performers and put in very supported advanced learning classrooms. Next, you need to pour in money and staff to intensively tutor the kids who are behind. You cannot have everyone in the same classroom. [/quote]
