Response to "Closing schools not the Answer nor Solution"

I agree with closing failing schools is not the solution to fix failing students. Even though the failing students are transferred to a private school, they will just keep failing there. And the school will be labeled as "failing students" school. Putting them together would not encourage them to work harder. In this article, the author addresses the problem is that nobody tried to find out why they are not doing well academically. But if the private school is a place for figuring out what their problem is, then it will be a totally different story.

Separating them from the "good students" would make a better environment. The failing students won't distract the good students, and the school can pay less attention to deal with the problem of failing students. It saves money on hiring the specialists. I am not saying sending them out would be a better idea. I am just saying it might not be the best one. There are advantages that the school district can take them as consideration or reference to come up with a better solution.
