You will see that the children who accel in this school district are often those whose parents/grandparents/families are teachers/administration, friends of the administration or pillars of the community. Those students whose families are not well known in the community, are often forgotten about. One member of the administration has been allowed to have his hand in everything in the district for so long, that they finally made a position for him, Assistant Superintendent. Between having that title, and being head of the transportation dept., he now has control over all the students from elementary to high school, even while on the busses, and that is exactly as he wanted it. Most of the teaching staff give 100% effort to the students, but are often shut down in their efforts by administration. One of my children (a student) was never even offered extra help in Kindergarten, and he has Aspberger's Syndrome and ADHD. After knowing that, they put him in the class of a first year teacher (straight out of college), who was overwhelmed, and watched him struggle. Thankfully they did offer a summer school program that year, and we were able to get him mostly caught up.
