[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Fwiw, our center school is changing their program so that all kids get "LL IV" S/SS.  I have an older DC who was in AAP at the same school and younger DC is not getting the same S/SS.  They've modified it so that it will work for everyone.  [/quote]

I would be leery of how this will be applied. My child is at a Center and the other classes are theoretically receiving LL IV curriculum too. That's in name only IMO. For example, my child did 12 weeks of Caesar's English in 4th; gen ed classrooms did 2 weeks that merely introduced the concept. On paper, they all had the same experience. My guess is that the gen ed classrooms don't have the time to add these types of learning to their lesson plans because of the potential increased time for basic instruction. There's no way a gen ed class could keep up with the pace of math.

OP, my recommendation would be the Center school. I can't see how clustering will be able to offer anywhere near the effort of a full-time, immersive program with the diverse abilities in a mixed classroom.[/quote]
