[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At our school, the LLIV class has less than 15 kids because the principal will not infill.  Then the Gen Ed classes have in the mid-twenties.  That seems sort of ridiculous to me.[/quote] Interesting, our LLIV class last year was at 29, even though the other classes dropped to the low 20's when we reached the max and got another teacher in 5th Grade.  I am unsure of what % of the students are Center Eligible, but I asked the principal why LLIV was not equalized with the other classes (perhaps moving some non-eligible into some of the now smaller classes), and she felt that they could not pull anyone who had been in the class the prior year, doing the AAP work, even if not center-eligible. In her defense, she was an interim principal, who stayed on when our principal did not return from maternity leave.

My one gripe about LLIV though is that with only one class per grade, there can be some real social problems.  I am thankful they are mixing the 6th graders for Specials this year, which they had not done in the past (except for side-by-side PE classes).  I think that though our LLIV children are rotating teachers, they will all travel together still for core subjects.  Curious how that works out with regard to what is really AAP beyond Math.  Would that mean all the 6th grade teachers are endorsed for AAP, or in the process?[/quote]
