[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would have absolutely no hesitation for my child to be the only white kid. I would have absolutely 100% hesitation to ever send my child to a KIPP school. I taught in one for years. Don't do it. [/quote] Can you explain why not?[/quote] Kids call it the 'kids in prison program' They, like many charters, will kick kids out for any and everything, if they even let them in - IEP, 504, first strike you're out even with menial absurd inconsequential rules like chewing gum. They're all there for the numbers. "We sent 100% of our kids to college!" but really they boot out all the kids who won't get in :roll: http://www.schoolsmatter.info/2012/03/why-students-call-kipp-kids-in-prison.html http://debsedstudies.org/knowledge-is-power-but-at-a-cost-kipp-cmo-report/ https://educationvotes.nea.org/2017/03/07/5-reasons-charter-schools-bad-news-students/[/quote]
