[quote=Anonymous]I'm an ES teacher on leave right now, and I may be wrong since I'm not currently involved in the discussions on this topic at my school, but it's my understanding that the ELC is far less "capped" at numbers than the CES. If a school has 40 kids who meet the criteria for the ELC, whatever those may be, than they will have it. My school is getting it next year for 4th graders, and the talk has been that we will have one non-classroom teacher who will pull those students out and have them for the entire ELA block. If there are too many students for one class, the classroom teachers will shift students for ELA and one of them will also teach the ELC.

So if your child should get ELC, I believe they will. And it sounds like if they don't "qualify" there is still wiggle room for parents (and teachers) to advocate that they be allowed to try. But again, I don't have proof! My own kid did not get selected for CES but will get ELC and I think that's going to work best for our family. If he was offered a spot from the waitlist, I'm pretty sure we would decline.[/quote]
