[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids arrive at Deal and Hardy at varying math levels and are sorted into 3-4 paths. That means, every school that feeds into Deal differentiates, even if parents don't realize it (as in, if you are expecting an award certificate saying your kid is in the highest math group, you won't be seeing that; they won't even say it to you). [/quote] This is not true. Our school does not differentiate. I have talked to them, and have a friend with a kid two grade levels ahead that has tried to get some math enrichment for the last two years with no luck. There are no groups and they all do the same work in class. [/quote] How did the kid get two grades ahead with out differentiation, and how do they know it unless the school test showed it? BTW, going more than two grades ahead leads to a dead end unless the kid is a prodigy headed to MIT at age 16. Which school does not differentiate within the classroom?[/quote]
