[quote=Anonymous]its not entirely true that there arent tracked classes. there are now “advanced” math and english classes at both jefferson and SH. one key to an academically strong middle school experience is having a strong peer cohort (and no this group just needs to reach a critical mass and does not need to include every kid at the school). i think parents get scared the local dcps is a not very good middle school option. they get scared others who earlier made or are making different (charter) school choices must know more than they do with respect to what the best schools are. the result is the reasonably strong elementary school peer cohorts are dispersed rather than combined together to form an even stronger group in middle school.[/quote]
