Sample:
		
Academic Placement - In middle school, students are frequently grouped and re-grouped, allowing them to meet and work with a broad spectrum of peers. These grouping practices may include cluster groups, as well as daily cooperative learning groups, within each classroom. A clustered class includes both Gifted and Talented (GT) and non-GT students for the purpose of providing all students access to rigorous instruction and resources within the same classroom. Through differentiated instruction, teachers provide the appropriate level of instruction to each student assigned to the class.  Incoming Grade 6 students will have their standardized test scores, previous years’ grades, GT data, and Grade 5 teacher recommendations reviewed by staff. This information will be used to determine student placements.  Changes and adjustments are made based on student progress, emerging abilities, interests, talents and social needs.  Evaluation of student performance is on-going allowing for adjustment throughout the school year, as needed.

Accelerated and Enriched Programming and Instruction - The Silver Spring International Middle School provides a continuum of ac¬celerated and enriched instructional opportunities. We offer accelerated and en¬riched instructional pathways built into the MCPS curriculum. In mathematics, high school courses such as algebra and geometry are offered. Ad-vanced-level courses for English, science, and world studies offer additional opportunity for acceleration and enrichment to all students demonstrating the ability, potential, or motivation to attempt this challenging course of study.
