[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The at-risk preference is going to ruin Latin. BASIS it is. [/quote] I think it will essentially ruin Latin for ambitious families that can't afford to supplement a lot outside school. The rest will up their game with more tutors, academic summer camps, parents teaching kids this and that at home etc. The at-risk preference is one of those road to hell paved with good intentions ideas. Test-in GT from elementary school would work a lot better for the city, the parents and the students concerned.[/quote] I think you might be underestimating Latin. They are trying to get back to the at-risk percentage where they started, except for now they are a fully-fledged program. My wife is an educator and we are consistently blown away by the caliber of teaching at Latin and how year after year they draw out new skills in our kids. They can handle it. [/quote]
