Until they can answer, let's tell them to shut up." —Susan Ohanian (One Size Fits Few: The Folly of Educational Standards) Interversity ProjectsEchoes of Orwell:The purpose of this webforum is to promote a lively discussion among students and faculty alike about George Orwell's 1984 and the parallels or echoes found in today's society. |
[Author Prev][Author Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Author Index][Thread Index] WSJ on fighting over gifted students
I didn't see anybody post the WSJ article about how schools are fighting to keep their gifted kids and their test scores instead of sending them to schools with gifted programs. Anybody got it? I gave up on sending my kid to the middle school gifed program - he was one point short in one score, and 10 pts short in another, and figured chances of getting both in the upcoming ITBS were low, and the gain of hassling sending him to the 2nd closest school at my own transportation time expense wasn't worth it.
