[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are the honors classes at high school level being grouped heterogeneously now, as they are in middle school? I assume so…that really changes the classroom dynamic. [/quote] During BCC parents info night for rising 9th graders several teachers and a counselor said that most honors classes were heterogeneously grouped -- i.e. both on grade level and honors in the same class but with some different assignments/expectations. The con to this may mean that the classes are not actually that challenging. The pro is that a student can "try" honors and drop back to "regular" in the same classroom without creating a lot of problems -- they likely won't have to move to a new class section that might necessitate a larger change in schedule.
