[quote=Anonymous]At many high schools in the county, only Honors courses are offered. For this reason, the courses are dumbed down to mirror what used to be called On Level courses. It's a shame for a couple of reasons. The disparity of skills in these classes is very large, so kids who belong in a true honors class tend to be bored and left unchallenged so that the needs of struggling students can be met. Secondly, struggling students are being awarded weighted credits when they really don't belong in honors classes. [/quote]
