That's very interesting. This is anecdotally very contrary to my experience in middle-class public school, and my sister's experience as a teacher in a lower-income school.
Was the doc shot pre-NCLB? Is it simply a matter of variance across a large country, and my viewpoint is biased?
- ChrisMarshallNY 5y agoI don't remember. It was a long time ago. In my experience, this is exactly what happened, in my schools (I attended US public and private schools, after 5th grade). I saw it from both perspectives. I was very smart, and did well, when I applied myself. I could also be a nightmare slacker.
