Your school is only giving FA to bright kids and is only doing it so that their test scores will make the rest of the school look good. No one is being "given" any thing. It is the brain power of these bright kids that earns your school its reputation, maintains its reputation and, later largely establishes the intellectual environment in which your child will be educated. My DC gets a lot of aid and spends most of his class time graciously helping his classmates who " don't understand".[/quote] Boy, I wish this were the case at my school. The family I know of has several bright and several not so bright children. One of which is a sheer terror and has punched children without any repurcussions. I think children like these probably will end up reinforcing the very stereotypes that they are trying to get rid of.[/quote]
