[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here - so everyone is Level 1 and above average starts at Level 2 and moves up to AAP/4? But there's no designation for below average? It's juste if you're not above average, you're average?[/quote]

Not really, there are SPED classes that are for kids who are far behind with learning issues, special classes for kids with emotional disorders, and special classes for English Language Learners. No one is going to refer to those kids as below average, even though some are. Others need additional help to get to a point that they can access school in a mainstream classroom.

But Gen Ed is mainly for kids who are a bit behind grade level, on grade level, and maybe a little ahead. The other groupings are for kids who are some what ahead to advanced.

I'm not talking about special education or ESOL when I say below average, I mean children like mine who don't have any learning disabilities but are probably as much below grade level as a level II kid is above grade level. I guess it wouldn't benefit the school district to let families of below average children know that their kids are below average, so they lump everyone that's not advanced together, but then separate out slightly advanced, slightly more advanced, and even more advanced.

I am not sure what you are getting at. I am assuming you have seen the various assessments and test scores and report cards so you know your child is below average. Are you asking if the school has programs for a child like yours? [/quote]

Why are there three levels of advanced and then "everyone else"?[/quote]
