[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This has been happening in ES and MS for years. Now, MCPS is extending the same concept to HS. Our MS only offers one English class - Advanced English. It is a mix of kids who are very proficient and some kids who are ESOL and kids who are at grade level. MCPS doesn’t support differentiation because it is not Equitable. Unfortunately, this system helps nobody. The kids who are below level just struggle, even with ‘supports’ in place and often end up being disruptive because they’re not engaged in learning. And the kids who are above grade level get bored and disengage. [/quote] So they're achieving equity by dumbing everyone down to the least common denominator?[/quote] That's not good since most on-level classes today seem remedial and honors was more like average.[/quote]
