[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So this is really specific, but my kid is at a non-WOTP DCPS middle and is literally just "tired of explaining the class material to [their] friends." Is McKinley a school where the vast majority are actually getting the material, in a timely way, or is my kid going to be stuck deputized to do this still?[/quote] Answering with first hand experience: there are plenty of below grade level students but also a solid cohort of students doing at and above grade-level work. Behavior is also generally not an issue. It is not a TJ but your 9th grader can take honors for all core classes bio, math, English, and history as a freshman and be solidly challenged with other peers in class working hard. AP human gri is an option for well prepared freshman as well. Math starts where needed including the one off freshman in AP calc.[/quote]
