[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For example, I believe Hardy only has advanced classes for English and Math, and even those classes are too large because DCPS can't fund another teacher for an extra class. Then you've got general social studies and history classes, among others that all the students take, that would flat-out suck for an advanced kid. And, as another poster mentioned, advanced 9th graders at Wilson have to suffer through a lost year until they get their advanced classes starting in 10th grade. There seems no real fix for the problem of supporting advanced (which in DC means "performing at grade level") students' needs when 85% of the student body is performing under grade level and DCPS has limited funds.[/quote] What public school is offering advanced classes for all middle school students in every subject? Not Deal. Not Latin. Not BASIS. Not DCI. [/quote]
