[quote=Anonymous]PP above, talk to DCI parents about differentiation. They're not hard to find. What DCI puts in writing about differentiation makes the approach sound wonderful. In the DCI middle school, there is some differentiation for math, and of course language, but not for science, social studies or English. Kids who can work at a HS level in 8th grade are tossed into the same classes as many kids who work one, two, even three or four years behind grade level. Plenty of kids work behind grade level. Things are better in HS, where students have more choice over classes and levels, but not much. If rigor is your priority, go for BASIS for 5th grade, go private or move.[/quote]
