[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What schools have different levels of this course? My child’s middle school only has one level of each humanities class in middle school. [/quote]

There aren’t different levels of the course. There’s on-level (IWS) Global Humanities (HIGH), and, at only two MS, Humanities.[/quote]

Sorry I don’t  understand the above. Humanity focused magnet middle schools aside, do MCPS middle schools have the option of having an on-level humanities course and an above-level humanities course? My child’s school only has one option Historical Inquiries Global Humanities. Thanks [/quote]

Correct.  All middle schools must offer the enriched/above-level social studies courses to students who are centrally identified, and then it is their choice how many other students they want to offer it to, if any.  Some schools enroll all kids in it (or all except kids who are below-level/ELL/etc.). Others have continued the standard on-level social studies course for many of their students.  Overall about 40% of middle schoolers district-wide are in the enriched social studies classes, but at some schools it may be far more and at others far less.[/quote]
