Finnish Schools Score High

Sean sent me an article he found about Finnish Schools. He said, "It makes me want to move there." So they are scoring high on an international test. They don't have a very heterogeneous group like we do here in the states. One of the things he thought was cool was the way they have the gifted, or more advanced kids, help the average kids in the classroom instead of being pulled out or given extra work, which is sometimes done here in the states. This is something we are struggling with at CCPCS: How do we get all students involved in eachother's learning?
