[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] From my non-McLean-non-high-FARMS perspective, that's how the current system works. But there are many posters on this forum who hate the current system and want to blow it all up, including you. We'll agree to disagree. [/quote] 20% of FCPS kids are all such outliers that they need to be shipped to a different school for appropriate differentiation? :roll: [/quote] So here's the issue that some LLIV schools are having right now with so many kids at the base school who are ahead in instruction. They then make 2-3 classes of advanced instruction in a subject and then the kids who aren't advanced in the subject still feel like they aren't advanced and outnumbered and because it's an arbitrary cutoff based on classroom size, one child could be in an advanced class one year and not in it the next. There's no mechanism to insist they still get advanced instruction other than placement with a certain class and teacher.[/quote]
