[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I believe that Scandinavian school systems, like many other European school systems, have rigid tracking that starts early. Admittance to high schools depend on test scores, and include various college prep as well as vocational schools. I have relatives who are Swedish, btw. [/quote] How early? Do they start at age 7/8, like AAP? We also don't know just how rigid AAP is. I wonder what percent of kids who are struggling in AAP choose to return to gen ed? Likewise, how many kids are able to move from gen ed to AAP in later elementary? I've been under the impression that most kids who are admitted after 3rd grade either are new to FCPS or were principal placed in a Level IV classroom. The AART at the local elementary (non center, non LLIV school) thought it was much harder being admitted after the main 2nd grade admission round, which suggests that the process is fairly rigid.
