[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When they stopped tracking and did honors for all, people who have $ are leaving. I went to public schools in Moco and believe in public education but I'm seeing it degraded so much from my time. Too many kids; too many discipline problems and not high enough expectations. We are not in MS yet but seriously considering going private. My kids aren't super duper gifted, but they are good, call and hardworking students who like school but would do so much better with smaller glasses and a peer group that's focused on learning. [/quote] Public school class sizes are enormous for lower grades, the behavioral problems are 10x what it was previously, and the high schools give 4.0s to the average, not very bright kids. There is no class rigor as a result. While magnets and special public schools might be better, it is only a matter of time before they decay also.[/quote] LOL. Going to build my bunker now.[/quote]
