[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I do not trust this report. We are at B-CC. There is not on-level English classes. Only Honors (or AP/IB in grades 11/12). Maybe if you are ELD, they will put you in an on-level class, but not if you are an English speaker, even when you are performing below grade level. It is definitely honors for all, and that is why teachers do not actually teach an honors class. It is grade-level at best.[/quote]

My kid is in Bridge at Churchill.  Is there an SESES program at BCC?  We have grade level classes in Bridge so I'm thinking that if BCC has a sp ed program, the regular classes might be for the self contained courses.[/quote]

This is the course registration card for 9th grade for B-CC. They told incoming parents that everyone takes honors English 9A/B and there is no on-level option. This is the same as years past.

It does look like they have a separate class for ELDs at certain levels, so maybe that is what they mean. If that is the case, the report is definitely misleading by stating that English 9A/B is an option. It's honors for all except for the few kids assigned to that class.

My son who is in Bridge, doesn't do course registration via the registration cards/online forms.  The counselors register them into their classes.  Bridge classes don't appear on the forms since they already know who will be placed in the class based on the IEPs.[/quote]
