[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You’re enlightened OP. The situation you describe is why low and middle income school districts so rarely produce top students. It’s not extra funding or a brand new building or how many iPads are at school or Common Core — it always goes back to the family.[/quote] +1. Especially the low/middle income school districts in rural areas. The expectations for those kids are just different from our expectations.[/quote] Increasingly, they are producing nicer and more emotionally sturdy human beings. I worry about all the hothouse flowers I read about on DCUM or the wealthy parents of varsity blues who couldn’t tell their fragile kids that they were not eligible to go to UCLA.[/quote]
