[quote=Anonymous]I could have written this. I taught in a Title I school and then moved to a school that is middle of the road. Even at the not Langley/McLean pyramid school, I see the same thing. I am almost tempted to go back to the Title I school and pupil place my kids there. I saw a lot more innovative teaching and problem solving going on there. At my higher SES school, if a kid is struggling, the first step seems to be getting the kid to local screening because it MUST be the kid, not the teaching. At the Title I school, we actually problem solved during CT meetings and figured out reteaching strategies and ways to improve challenging behaviors. I think teachers were more willing to take risks and try new things. I also think the kids themselves were more open to taking risks because their parents weren't breathing down their necks about getting straight A's and getting into TJ. [/quote]
