[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There was discussion of busing on the GTA listserv.  [/quote]

It appears that, in some clusters, the 4th graders taking the combined 4/5 class will be expected to ride the local middle school bus to the middle school in the AM, take the combined 4/5 class at the middle school during the first period, and then be transported back to their local elementary school by MCPS.  When their 4th grade elementary peers are taking their math class during the regular elementary day, the kids who went to the middle school for the accelerated 4/5 class will just be asked to sit in some kind of study hall type class and do "homework".

This seems a little weird since they are still doing elementary school level math.  I know some schools will have those students instructed by a math specialist in their home school- it's too bad that not all of the schools have these resources.  [/quote]

Hmm.  I really would like to see a county-wide list showing which schools are able to teach this class at their own elementary schools and which ones will have to bus to a central location. [/quote]
