[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Perhaps. But LLIV is not 100% aap center eligible kids. A center is prime-only the top kids.[/quote]

That might be true at some schools, but is certainly not true at all schools.

Yes but that doesn't change the FACT that LLIV is open to non center eligible kids. LLIV is much like honors and a center is not. One has 100% aap kids; the other does not by definition. Some schools may, but it isn't required.[/quote]

Are you talking about the core classes or about the electives/specials, too?

I am only intimately familiar with a few LLIV settings, but in those settings, the core classes (math (usually), language arts/English, science, and social studies in ES; language arts/English, science, and social studies in MS) are LIV-eligible students.  Specials/electives are "mixed," of course.  Even in centers, not all classes are "pure" LIV-eligible students.   Math and specials/electives are not always "pure" LIV.

What do you mean by "LLIV is much like honors and a center is not"?  Both honors and LIV classes access the extensions in the curriculum and are taught with a focus on critical and creative thinking skills.  Other than the students to whom these classes are open, what do you see as being different between an honors class and a LIV class?[/quote]
