[quote=Anonymous]NP here. I'm guessing that the PP was noting that because it's a local program, something like 10-12% of the 4th graders at the school are in the CES program (I think -- looks like 1 classroom out of 9?). It's been said that the standards for the lottery pool this year may have been that kids with an 85th percentile or above on MAP, plus As on reading/writing, and reading above grade level are placed in the lottery pool. So that might be ~15% of the population, and most of them would end up in the CES. That's probably not going to substantially change the feel from previous years. Compare that to the regional programs; the CES my kid is in has two classrooms (56 kids) drawn from 18 feeder elementary schools. In the past, that means only the top 3-5% of kids would be invited; this year, the lottery meant that the top 15% or so was in the lottery. That's a bigger change at the regional program than at the local program. [/quote]
