[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have an incoming 9th grade freshman and I was amazed to learn that ALL the kids are in honors english and history. Doesn't that by definition make it non-honors? Apparently it has to do with the IB program. I don't understand it and don't think I will if I decided to think on it more.[/quote] It is honors actually honors, but they slow down the pace for the kids who need it. Kudos to the teachers for having to work with such a wide range of kids.[/quote] I really think MCPS honors English is what used to be called college-prep when I was in high school. It is achievable for the overwhelming number of kids if they put enough time into it. I am sure it’s hard for the teachers to accommodate everyone, but it really is much better preparation than on-level English. [/quote]
