[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Meh. My son really wants to go but if he doesn’t get in, that’s life! Academics is really about what you bring to the table. I’m sure he could get a good education at any school.[/quote] Any school?[/quote] Yes, good students can learn anywhere. There are good and bad teachers at every school. I think DCUM puts WAY too much emphasis on testing and SES.[/quote] I appreciate your enthusiasm, but it is really hard for good students to learn at some schools. When behavior is so bad and kids are so far behind or absent too often, the kids that don’t learn are the good students. They are good so the teacher doesn’t spend a lot of time worrying about them. This is, unfortunately, from personal experience working in some difficult school environments.[/quote]
