[quote=Anonymous]"When 75% of students are low-income and at risk, the school district needs to adjust to meet and prioritize their needs . Otherwise you are just perpetuating the gaps between rich and poor students." So we ignore the needs of the smartest and highest-achieving kids who have the abilities to do great things for our city/country? No, research shows that these kids do NOT do okay when their needs are ignored. In fact, a lot of them end up underachieving and, yes, in jail. (10% of the jail population is gifted, compared to 2-3% of the total population.) [/quote]
