Who’s doing 8th grade algebra in 5th grade? The Santee elementary schools? So you’re suggesting that the “gifted” kids in Santee are going to be doing calculus by 9th grade? I’m going to have to roll my eyes right there. Don’t overstate your case, it ruins everything else you have to say.
And in terms of “impressive” school districts, it’s those high schools that churn out 5+ National Merit Scholars every year and send a slew of students off to Stanford and the Ivy Leagues. Santee isn’t in that league, and being 70% (as someone said earlier) isn’t going to attract people (and probably won’t scare them away either).
PS I think what confused people with the 10 minutes to La Jolla argument is that you talk about enjoying the beach in LaJolla but then pick a non-beach boundary to determine time and distance. Bad arguing technique…
