Chapter 5: Teaching to the Individual, Working With the Group

Some schools track students all the way through high school by race. Certain groups of students stay in the same track no matter what, all the way through high school.

I still find myself amazed at what some adults do, as well as school administrators. It just baffles me to know that actually instances of “racism” still go on, and in schools none the less. School should be a place where students are getting the opportunity to learn to their fullest potential. Tracking, under no terms, allows for that and therefore I feel that it is wrong and not giving every child the right to learn as much as they can. What happened to the idea of No Child being Left Behind? Segregating does not solve this problem.
