HB has “1” class over 27 students.

Other HS each have close to 100

But at least we have equity?[/quote]

Is that true?!  If so, that’s total bulls—t.  APS teacher with 30 in every class but one.[/quote]

Are you kidding? Of course it’s true. HBW spins a yarn they can’t be over crowded because of their model.

What is the largest class sizes at WL? All they report is greater than 27. [/quote]

Of course it's BS.  There isn't a single course being taught with anything close to 100 students in the classroom unless it's chorus, band, or orchestra.  Even band is taught in multiple periods.  The only time 100 students might be in a "class" together is during marching band rehearsals - which occur outside the school day.  [/quote]

Ah an HBW booster who can’t be bothered to read or think critically.

The number I quoted was the NUMBER of classes GREATER than 27.  HBW has 1 class. WL has about 80 classes greater than 27.

I wasn’t saying any class was 100 students, and that is so patently ridiculous I can’t believe you even responded without first wondering “maybe I misread that”[/quote]

I see you haven’t come back to apologize for your mistake

Could anyone answer the ACTUAL largest size of a class in WL, is it 32?[/quote]

Per the post on the prior page, you can see the classes that average 27+. It's not that many. That 2020-21 report doesn't show the largest sizes at WL that year but with those averages, most under 30, I doubt the largest is more than 32.

FWIW, Yorktown has more classes with averages over 27 with several averaging 30+ so you are better off at W-L.[/quote]

They left electives like P.E. and cooking classes off.  Because they overcrowd them- is it any easier to manage kids in those settings?  Safer?  I don’t think so.[/quote]
