Peters (2021) asserts that “America as a society is a very unequal place. Inequality of access and opportunity translate to unequal levels of school readiness, academic achievement, and measured cognitive ability, such that expecting equality of almost any educational outcome would be illogical” (p. 3). Using the Early Childhood Longitudinal Program-Kindergarten 2011 restricted access data, we recently examined achievement differences between high and low socioeconomic status (SES) students in the fall of kindergarten. We compared the mathematics and reading achievement of students who were at least 1 standard deviation above the sample mean on SES with those who were at least 1 standard deviation below the mean on SES. The low SES students scored 1.5 standard deviations below the high SES students in mathematics and 1.25 standard deviations below high SES students in reading (McCoach et al., 2021), suggesting that students enter kindergarten on vastly unequal footing. Furthermore, the SES gaps that exist in the fall of kindergarten persist throughout elementary school. In fact, Hanushek et al. (2020) concluded that by eighth grade students in the top quarter of the SES distribution outscore those in the bottom quarter by an average of three grade levels. Indeed, achieving equity in gifted identification feels like a Sisyphean task in such a context.

在公共教育中实现公平

彼得斯 (2021) 断言“美国作为一个社会是一个非常不平等的地方。入学机会和机会的不平等转化为入学准备、学业成绩和衡量认知能力的不平等水平,因此期望几乎所有教育成果的平等都是不合逻辑的”(第 3 页)。我们最近使用幼儿纵向计划 - 幼儿园 2011 年限制访问数据,研究了幼儿园秋季高社会经济地位 (SES) 学生和低社会经济地位 (SES) 学生之间的成绩差异。我们比较了在 SES 中高于样本均值至少 1 个标准差的学生与低于 SES 均值至少 1 个标准差的学生的数学和阅读成绩。SES 低的学生在数学方面的得分比 SES 高的学生低 1.5 个标准差,而 1. 在阅读方面比高 SES 学生低 25 个标准差(McCoach 等人,2021 年),这表明学生在非常不平等的情况下进入幼儿园。此外,幼儿园秋季存在的 SES 差距贯穿整个小学。事实上,Hanushek 等人。(2020 年)得出的结论是,到八年级时,SES 分布的顶部四分之一的学生比底部四分之一的学生平均高出三个年级。事实上,在这种背景下,实现天才识别的公平感觉就像是一项艰巨的任务。(2020 年)得出的结论是,到八年级时,SES 分布的顶部四分之一的学生比底部四分之一的学生平均高出三个年级。事实上,在这种背景下,实现天才识别的公平感觉就像是一项艰巨的任务。(2020 年)得出的结论是,到八年级时,SES 分布的顶部四分之一的学生比底部四分之一的学生平均高出三个年级。事实上,在这种背景下,实现天才识别的公平感觉就像是一项艰巨的任务。
