[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Mclean and Langley pyramid ES schools all incorporate Level IV into all classrooms. It has been like this for several years because the majority of kids can do/handle/ embrace the work/challenge. You get to the MS level and Longfellow( maybe cooper as well) has all Honor classes. Twins went through and one was in AAP one in GE. Same level of teaching, same projects, same novels, same tests etc… Math is the only major difference and even then, most take at least Algebra 1 by 8th grade( so 1 year ahead as well as some 2+ years ahead). Once you get to HS it just doesn’t matter. You will sit at graduation and notice the kids who have all of these wonderful accolades. Going to great schools. Soooo many of the kids were not in AAP in ES.[/quote]

No, not for us.  Our Langley pyramid ES loves to tout that Level IV material is being used in all classrooms, but in practice it is based on the teacher's preferences.  Our son was new to FCPS in 5th grade.  When pressed, neither his GE 5th grade teacher or the AART would confirm that this was happening with any regularity, if at all.  [/quote]
