A comment to ponder

Hi James,

I wish i understood why all classes aren’t AP classes. It
doesn’t make since to me. I’m in fifth grade and I can’t get a
challenge. How many AP classes are you in? I will probably not have
any. Even though I am at the top of my class, I’m going to a private
school next year. It costs $12,000.00. They don’t give homework, there
is no “No Child Left Behind” and no standerdized testing. How awsome.
Would you like to go there and why?

I pulled this comment from one of my elementary students who had made a comment on one of my high school student blogs.  This is what kept ringing in my head….

They don’t give homework, there
is no “No Child Left Behind” and no standerdized testing.

Hmmmmmm, maybe we’re not smarter than our fifth graders.

    My son did go to private high school after attending public school. He had lots of homework in both settings. The biggest difference was that the private school could set the expectations for behavior and turning in work and actually enforce those standards. The public school did not have the luxury of doing this.

    Among me and my husband we have owned additional MP3 gamers more than the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (traditional & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few many years I’ve settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.

    Thx for your post. I’d really like to write my opinion that the price of car insurance varies widely from one policy to another, due to the fact there are so many different issues which play a role in the overall cost. By way of example, the model and make of the auto will have a large bearing on the cost. A reliable aged family automobile will have a more economical premium compared to a flashy performance car.
