>Rationalizations justifying the high school’s disappointing placement rate at Ivy and equivalent colleges very disappointing
I hear a lot of rationalizations justifying the high school’s disappointing placement rate at Ivy and equivalent colleges.
What I don’t hear from most of these comments is an awareness that we have a problem that needs to be addressed. When our top kids can’t get into the nation’s top colleges or earn National Merit Semifinalist status, then alarm bells should be going off and people should start thinking about how to fix the problem instead of trying to act like nothing is wrong
