[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is all encouraging. What is the size of the high school cohort? I assume there is very significant drop off into middle school and again into high school. I did see the impressive passage rate of the high school seniors on the fluency exam.[/quote] It depends on the year but I think generally between 45-60. They aren't all BFF and of course kids make friends outside of the cohort, but having a group for 3 (MS) or 9 (ES+MS) going in to HS together - where 2 of your 9th grade classes (Bio and Spanish) are exclusively from this cohort is great. FWIW the immersion science teacher at Wakefield (she teaches both immersion bio in 9th and immersion chem in 10th) is outstanding. Both classes are also "intensified" (APS version of "honors").[/quote]
