[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is “in pool” all about level 4? Which probably means a different school?

What happens for the group just below that? Am i right in understanding that in 3rd grade they split classes more on ability? Is there a level 3 that is all in one class?

121 cogat and 138 nnat, if it matters. Teacher referred AAP but I doubt DC would get in with those scores, which is fine by me anyway.  Just not sure what the back up is to level 4, if any.

In-Pool is for Level IV services or full time services, they changed what they call it now. Full time services can happen at the base school, through Local Level iV, or at a Center school that will probably have multiple classrooms for kids receiving Level IV services. Most Local Level IV programs are one classroom although sme use the cluser model where Level IV kids are clustered together in a grade level class and receive additional instruction from the Teacher.

Level III is a program that is supposed to pull out kids who need additional challenge but do not rise to the level of need for Level IV services. It is supposed to be a class that meets 1 hour a week with the AART and cover a fair number of the extensions that the LIV kids receive. LIII is hit or miss, depending on the school. My kids school did a great job with LIII. The kids were pulled out on a very regular basis, although not weekly, and they meet with the AART for an hour when they were pulled from class. Others report that the LIII pull outs rarely happen or are 30 minutes long.

Advanced Math is the main service that parents want. Advanced Math leads to kids beign 1 year acelerated n math in ES. Fifth grade Advanced Math/LIV kids are learning the sixth grade curriculum. Sixth Grade Advanced Math/LIV kids are learning the 7th grade curriculum. The Advanced Math/LIV kids will be given the IAAT test in January of sixth grade as part of the process for qualifying for Algebra 1 H in 7th grade. Kids need to score in the 91rst percentile on the IAAT AND Pass Advanced on the 7th Grade Math SOL in order to take Algebra 1 H in 7th grade.
