[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I believe that Principals get to decide if they are going to house a Level IV program at their school, at least i know that had been the case on the ES level. Our school is a language immersion school and the Principal, honestly I think it was most of the Teachers as well, did not want a Local Level IV in the school. Teacher friends I talked to about Level IV who teach at our school were pretty dismissive. So we did not have a Local Level IV program. That is changing this year, I believe that FCPS is now requiring all ES to have Local Level IV and that they have three years, including this year, to establish a program.

I suspect that MS have the same flexibility. If Robinson does not have AAP classes for the MS crowd, it is because it is not of interest to the Staff at the school and not enough parents have asked/demanded one. Honestly, the families at my ES are pretty happy with the base and very few kids attend the Center. That could be the case for the Robinson feeder ES. [/quote]

If fcps school board wanted to fix "equity" between the schools without a bunch of controversy, they could do this quite easily.

All they need to do is to add a middle school and elementary school level IV AAP center in every damn high school pyramid.

There is no escuse other than giving smart kids a way to transfer 9ut of districts like Lewis and Mount Vernon, for fcps to not offe4 an innzone AAP track at every single pyramid.

But of course, they refuse to take the easiest, most effective, cheapest option with the most immediate results.[/quote]
