[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, my DS attended a North Arlington school for 3 years with very few, if any, ESL but several kids with learning or behavioral challenges. He spent too much time on the ipad or free time staring out the window. His last teacher, while very smart and a lovely person, didn't seem to have a handle on the too-large class and had no idea that my son's reading and comprehension was poor. I ended up having to "home school" him myself after hours in reading, math and science (very few lessons all year) to catch up to the VA standards of learning. I primarily blame the class size and inefficient class structure. [/quote] This was similar to our experience in N Arlington. I believe title 1 schools get more staff in the classrooms. They also seem to be better equipped to handle kids with different needs. [/quote]
