[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The top two current threads on this subpage are basically: 1) DCPS does too much academically early on and is bad for kids 2) DCPS is terrible for academically focused kids because it doesn't do tracking early on I'm by no means defending DCPS, there needs to be a wholesale re-evaluation and shakeup with a new mayor (and an elimination of mayoral control) but you can see why there's a near impossible set of expectations and that's just from the UMC set. Now throw in a very large pool of at-risk and IEP students. [/quote] Sorry you are confused and it’s not both at the same time. Early on with the little ones it’s play based. Then in upper elementary is where you need tracking. That is why in many school districts, like the one I grew up in, G and T did not start until 3rd grade. Other school districts track by doing group pull outs. [/quote]
