[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DCPS can't even meet the needs of average students never mind the gifted. The majority of kids in DCPS in all testing grades are below grade level in reading and math including high schoolers. Quite understandable why they don't bother with gifted education since they are woefully inadequate in teaching anyone.[/quote] Which is why focusing on in-class differentiation that ensures all kids are taught at the right level is the right answer. It doesn't have to be either/or.[/quote] Differentiation is obviously [b]not[/b] working at all since DCPS has pathetically low proficiency rates in reading and math for large swaths of its students. Then you have large cohorts of families bailing on DCPS in order to meet their kids' educational needs.[/quote]
