I believe the centers do that. At our center as far as I know, only committee accepted kids are in the program. The AAP class in our grade is smaller than gen Ed class.

I will add that it is a high SES school. I know several parents that will be applying again this year that were rejected the previous year.

I’m a center teacher, but none as far as I know. There may be some that have enough committee-placed kids for a full class, but even so additional kids will often be principal placed to even out numbers.

Some LL4 schools that could have a full L4 only class split the level 4 kids anyway and “cluster” them in multiple classes. (And then supposedly they’re still getting full-time level 4 content while the teacher is also trying to get the below and on grade level kids taken care of. From the LL4 teachers I’ve talked to, this rarely actually happens.)

I am not asking about centers. I am asking about local level IV programs. Which local level IV programs only allow committee placed level IV students in the local level IV class?

None. They don't have enough AAP kids (20+) for a dedicated class in a local LIV school.

None, but the LIII kids who are principal placed will be indistinguishable from the LIV kids. There's a huge overlap between the bottom 2/3 of the LIV kids and the top gen ed kids.

None. Even our center has to even out AAP classes with kids who qualify for LIII.

None. You go to a center if that’s what you’re looking for.

Our center school does not. Sometimes the classes in the grade are lopsided. It is what it is.

I heard Chesterbrook has enough local IV kids for a local LIV only class.

None. That’s what centers are for.

You can go to the school demographics page and it'll say how many in level iv... Divide by 3 and that approximates how many per grade. Most schools I looked at with only local level 4 averaged 5-8 per grade.
