[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. DD going into 5th. They said that rescuers won’t specialize anymore and that apparently lots are planning to leave- this is terrible.[/quote] Our kids are the same grade. For the PP who asked, specialization starts at Haycock in 1st grade. My DC had separate math class since 1st grade. And it is a power house - the only public elementary competing with middle schools in math counts. [/quote] It's not considered best practice for kids in 1st or 2nd. They're too young for it. Possibly why the new principal is not supporting it.[/quote] Crock of crap. It is a great practice for the kids who get higher-level instruction and a disaster for the kids who are in the "low" groups. Years ago most FCPS schools did away with this in favor of blending ability levels to raise the performance of the lower groups. Problem is, it doesn't do anything useful to push the higher achievers.[/quote]
