[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]This is a relatively new phenomenon. actually. I went to one of the said G&T NYC High Schools in the late 70's/early 80's. 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 tghe lowest common denominator and parents need to support their children's education...not expect the teachers to carry the burden of raising their kids!. Things were different back then...parents took a more active role in their childrens' 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] You're right. And if anyone knew how to go back to that, we would. So far, no one has figured out how.[/quote]
