[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think I'm the PP you're responding to.

I want academic "flex tracking" in all DCPS middle schools.  The way flex tracking work is that tracked classes are offered at the remedial, on-grade- and above-grade levels for the four core subjects: science, social students, ELA and math. With flex tracking, no student is trapped on a particular track in a particular subject for more than one quarter at a time. That's generally how MoCo tracks these days, so students can go up or down a track each time a new quarter begins. Students can go up a track by passing a transparent placement test, or fall a track by asking to.  Parents, teachers, admins and students can request track changes at any point during the school year, with timely tracking reviews held on demand.

If SH offered full-bore flex tracking, they'd attract a much better balance of OOB and IB students, black, white, Asian, Middle Eastern, Latino, biracial, high SES, low SES etc.

they already track english and math. [/quote]

They don’t track in science and that’s part of the problem. Science is not a class that should be taught this way.

I thought they only track in math and science. [/quote][/quote]
