[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You realize that even in a diverse school, struggling students are usually in very different classes than successful students...right?  The opportunity for role models is small.  When MCPS looked at the differences between Twinbrook ES and the other schools in the RM cluster, Twinbrook parents were (understandably)not convinced their kids would be better off removed from small Title 1 classes to be bussed to a different school where they would have classes 2x the size.  It is a very complex issue. [/quote]
Peoviding [b]equal opportunity means open all AP and IB classes to every student in MCPS, regardless the grade and classes a student took[/b].  Wellbeing students will sit in the same classroom with the  other students. All students will learn and success![/quote]
DP..[b] are AP classes restricted to specific students in MCPS?[/b]  I thought any student could take an AP class if they chose to?  IB is different in that not all schools have IB classes.[/quote]

I don't think they are restricted per se, but come on, let's be real here. If you don't remember your multiplication tables and are reading at 4th grade level, you can sign up for AP Calculus and AP English all you want, the question is, what are you going to do there? [/quote]
PP here.. agreed. But the ^^PP made it sound like AP classes were not open to all.[/quote]
