[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our ES did not cluster but I would say to look at how they handled differentiation in K-2. If the principal made it a priority and ensured it actually happened consistently then odds of the cluster working are better. If you felt differentiation was lack luster in the younger grades I’d be skeptical they are implementing the cluster well. [/quote] NP - sadly, this is basically what we figured. A mid year check in with our first grade teacher last year and we said, so, what is DC getting since she's "level 2?" and the teacher was like, "I have no idea what level 2 is." So, yeah. I don't hold it against the teacher because she is completely lovely, but from what we've seen, "differentiation" in K-2 basically means nothing. [/quote] DP . We're not at a cluster school, but my child is getting Level 2 in 2nd grade and that means some extra reading/writing worksheets and being in an advanced math group.[/quote]
