I don't mean this literally. I'm adament that the state should not send
any child into the private school system.
My point is that the focus of this issue has always been the one bright kid when I think it should be on the "other 99 kids."
We (us - you and me) are not going to fix the school system by getting Jimmy Neutron's SAT from 1150 to 1250. We WILL fix the school system if, through our efforts, the average SAT for the entire school (as but one measure of success) increases from 820 to 890 or 910 or 950.
