Whatever we call it today, if it limits children and our ability to see their potential, it is still a negative mark.<BR/>Thanks for the comments.<BR/>Aurelioelmonte08https://www.blogger.com/profile/12237422313455159119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7855167929664076178.post-37343360744620635502008-09-05T12:22:00.000-07:002008-09-05T12:22:00.000-07:00Teaching in an elementary school in East L.A., I k...Teaching in an elementary school in East L.A., I know exactly where you are coming from. Especially after reviewing our test scores from this past spring. I do feel that labels do more harm than good. We used to call it "tracking". There are a few schools where there is a change in culture. We are still accountable to the powers that be and standardized testing. That does not mean we teach to the test.
