[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are AAP classes taught in Local Level IV middle schools, too (not just in AAP centers).  I believe the Local Level IV middle schools are Franklin and Cooper, though there might be more.  I'm not certain which schools also offer services.

At our middle school, it is relatively clear that there are differences among general education, honors, and Level IV classes.  Some materials seem to be shared, but there seem to be differences in complexity, assessment, and assignments among the three different levels.

Our middle school added LLIV in recent years. DC was in one of the pilot classes. The teachers' general response was one of surprise and also enthusiasm at how quickly the kids moved through the curriculum, and how much more thoroughly tue kids as a group liked to explore topics.  They said there was a difference in the intensity and depth of the instruction compared to the honors classes.

We have friends whose kids did mostly regular classes in seventh and switched to all honors in eighth and they all said the same thing about the differences between those two levels.  [/quote]
