Thanks--and This is true! I'm really happy my sister wanted to go this route (she's working as a special ed science teacher in the city high school we attended!), but part of that is because... well, that's where we went. So we know what it's like. Meanwhile when I went to catechism class in tenth grade the kids from the catholic high school acted like kids from the city schools were characters from Dangerous Minds--despite our usually being from the same neighborhood and background.

A lot of the best students I've had in freshman history were from disadvantaged backgrounds. And I ended up having to give them reduced grades on papers, because--despite their having much more interest in the material and incisive thinking than most of the advantaged kids--nobody ever taught them to write. It's a writing intensive course and I have to grade stuff like grammar and structure. People care a lot about giving these kids scholarships once they hit senior, but it appears nobody bothered to teach them a lot before that. It's depressing.
