[quote=Anonymous]I agree it is uneven by school, even by section, with no apparent oversight. I've just e-mailed DC's IM teacher to ask politely for more information about the nature of the enrichment this year. If no response in a week, I will move up the chain with my question (math department head, counselor, principal). No info in the syllabus or at BTSN, seems to be the regular IM worksheets as far as I can tell, with at least two sections taught by different instructors. This was done in such a last-minute ad hoc way, I'm sure some teachers couldn't get an enriched curriculum together in time for the school year start. But maybe I'll get some positive info back. It's still early. Large class: 33/34. Social Studies is very good, enrichment clearly explained by a strong experienced teacher with high standards. Works of literature and model UN activities are integrated for enrichment. Even though the class is HUGE (36), I feel great about its quality, which I believe is stronger than the CES social studies class in 5th. [/quote]
