[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, parents want their at grade level/above grade level kids to be challenged. Academic level usually correlates with SES but not always. I don't think parents would care if their kids went to class with smart, motivated students from a lower SES at all. [/quote] I think the point here is that you LIVE IN DC. Not in an enclave with all high SES or "motivated" low SES students. It is appropriate to want your child to be taught appropriately. It is inappropriate to push for segregated solutions in Ward 6. [/quote] And what will be the result if there is no sort of tracking or programming for creating cohorts of mostly on grade level students? Extreme segregation as people move away in search of that. So you have some sort of segregation anyway. How about a solution where students who can't move away at least. S edit from all sorts of families using the neighborhood school?[/quote]
