[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] So low-scoring, low-SES students should get remediation and KIPP-type extended day programs, while higher-scoring, high-SES student can get world language, museum programs and a regular childhood?[/quote] Even high SES students are not guaranteed a "regular childhood." Illness and tragedy can affect any child. A good public school system should provide students what they need and can handle, whether it be remediation and/or world languages.[/quote] How about letting go of the test scores and unreal expectations for what every child should be able to do at exactly the same time? Why don't we provide every child a well-rounded education? Wouldn't that serve equity much more than all this test score nonsense?[/quote]
