[quote=Anonymous]According to an MCPS meeting last year, Principals are authorized to group by ability, but doing so is an individual decision. If you ask the Principal if the school is grouping by ability, for which classes, and on the basis of what criteria (i.e. what criteria are they using to determine the groups), they are supposed to tell you. You can also ask if the different groups are getting different material (e.g. everyone is reading a biography from the civil rights era, but all at different reading levels). They should say yes or no. If you are having trouble getting this response, you should contact MCPS/AEI and get them to help you get the answers. Supposedly a memo went out on this last year to Principals. [/quote]
