[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the issue is that when there are only 2 levels, it is more like regular and low then honors and regular...since there is no such thing as remedial anymore.[/quote]

Our W school offers Honors US History and AP US History.  No on-level.  That makes Honors on level and AP advanced or Honors as remedial and AP as on-grade level?

No, it makes AP AP.

Plus, of course, at the W schools, everybody is above average.[/quote]

I think that's just the rep and particularly hard for those W. students who
don't fit the stereotypical profile.  It's hard to come from modest income parents and be an on grade
level kid and our school has many of those kids too.  [/quote]

Yes, I agree, PP, and I apologize. DCUM needs a "snark" emoticon.

(But I'm sincere about AP being AP.)[/quote]

No worries.  We all have our snark moments.

My child had a friend from outside of the W. come to visit her.  
She walked in our house (which is lovely but will not be in any magazine)
and commented -- this can't be (city).  The homes in (city) are supposed 
to be mansions!  [/quote]
