[quote=Anonymous]When I was in middle school there were a variety of "pods" per grade who took core subjects with the same teachers, and one of those sections was accelerated. So basically, we had tracking where probably 20% of kids were advanced, 20% were remedial, and maybe a tiny 2% were sent to another school for extremely advanced work. I know that there are magnet programs in MCPS, but what about the kids who don't get into or do the magnet? Are the rest of the english and history etc... classes all the same level, or are there a variety of levels, and if so, who chooses where the kid belongs? I assume that math is leveled because kids coming from compacted math are set up for taking higher level math in 6th. If it matters, we will be at TPMS and will be coming from a CES Program, so we are concerned that "regular classes" are not going to be challenging enough. [/quote]
