SilentZ,

Oh, come on, Joe. Public schools have several levels of classes. I graduated from an inner-city school less than ten years ago, and we had Regents-level (average), Honors, Advanced Placement, and remedial classes. That's far from egalitarian. As far as I can tell, that hasn't changed.

That luxury is not available in smaller schools, especially elementary schools.

And, an average kid not smart enough for honor classes still gets stuck with disruptive, undisciplined kids. And teachers don't and can't enforce discipline.

Joe
