[QUOTE="rawhide, post: 3093767, member: 3448"] Out perform us based on what assessment? The international exams do not reflect what news stories claim because very different pools of students are being tested. And, again the teachers teaching those students do not have accept EVERY child into their education environment. I've known many teachers and graduates of Stroud schools. From what I can see from the outside, it is an outstanding school system. Yes, the school environment and the environment that students go home to both have a very critical impact on a students education. One reason I often disagree with many of the school reform proposals and top down curriculum and classroom management is education cannot be implemented effectively with cookie cutter approaches. What works in OKC may not work at all in Stroud and vise versa. The evidence has always indicated that students from "small" schools usually out perform students from large urban schools. That is why many of the large districts have incorporated the "School within a School" approach that divides the large schools into smaller somewhat independent settings. [/QUOTE]
