FYI, all you said is (SES/demographic backgrounds). If you bring in IQ and desire to learn, does your other study also make sure all students have similar IQ and similar desire to learn? If you seriously think that’s a good argument, then it can be used to reject ALL studies thus far relating to school choice.
[quote=CA renter]Here is a small sampling of what Preuss offers (regular public schools can’t even begin to offer all of this, or the state would have been broke decades ago):[/quote]Why? If Preuss can do it, why can’t public school? If there’s no way public school can do it, why not open 100+ more Preuss?[/quote]
SES and demographic backgrounds are highly correlated to IQ.
Regarding your last comment about Preuss, did you not read what was posted? The cost per student at Preuss is WAAAAY above the cost per student at a regular public school. Preuss relies heavily on wealthy donors as well as resources from UCSD.
And could Preuss get the same outcomes from students with low IQs, SES, etc. if they threw all this money and all of these resources at them? No, they could not. They’ve tried that already and failed.
