I'd love to see a "five years later" kind of study on these kids.
Are these kids going to do better than other kids who made it into college from relatively harsh backgrounds?
Are these kids going to keep their good work ethic when the teachers in college don't care about them?
I wonder if getting into college has become the goal for the students like it has for the teacher/principal at their high school. If I had to guess: I expect the results to be quite polarized: some kids will drop out and accomplish little, others will keep their work ethic and do well.
