In Monday April 26th meeting, Webb said they were going to expand to 26 ESs this incoming fall with ELC program. However, they also said the school list wouldn't come out until late May or early June. |
My DC's school already offered/notified two weeks back about ELC and they are going forward with it this fall. but we don't know the list of kids who have been selected yet. |
Good for you! Do you mind share your ES name? |
Thanks for the information! Is there a link to slides or video for this? I'd like to ask the school principal for it. |

| The principal said we were not selected. I was wondering why. we don't have enough highly able students in the school? |
I checked back the choice study report and didn't find related words. Sorry about that. I can't even find any information about ELC on mcps website... Anyone has a link? All the information I got was first from this board, and then what Webb talked about during the April 26 meeting. |
This following document "Frequently Asked Questions about the Centers for Enriched Studies April 2018" on MCPS website has ELC being mentioned. http://www.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/uploadedFiles/curriculum/specialprograms/elementary/FAQs%20Centers%20for%20Enriched%20Studies%2052018(2).pdf |
East Silver Spring is also getting the ELC for next year's 4th grade class, according to a friend with a 3rd grader this year. It sounds like a great program, but I wouldn't assume that any school that doesn't have it didn't have a strong cohort. It's a pilot, so they had to pilot it somewhere! |
does Your friend know that her daughter is on the list for ELC? I meant school has sent out letter about kids selection? |
| Greenwood ES is one of the original ELC pilot centers from last year and we found out last week that it is continuing into next year; though details have not been forth coming as of today. |
how did you find out last year that your kid got selected for ELC and when? |
| What I heard is that no ES feeding into W schools got picked for the pilot. |
Not sure if that means those ES don't have such a cohort need enrichment. It could be why MCPS never made the list publicly available. |
I don't know. It seemed rude to ask. To the best of my knowledge, no one has been notified yet. |
