[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1. They are. 2. They do. 3. They aren’t and they do. The author is angry her kid was rejected by whittle.[/quote] What is the relevance of #1, DCI following the IB Middle Years Curriculum when the program doesn't appropriately challenge many students? I recently taught at school which follows IB Middle Years Curriculum where several levels of core subjects, including English/ELA, social studies, science and math were offered, as well as leveled language courses. The language classes included courses for native speakers of target languages. By contrast, DCI lumps middle school students who work two or three years behind grade level into the same academic classes as kids who work above grade level. This is done for all subjects but math and target language instruction. To my knowledge, there are no courses for native speakers of target languages at DCI. The system obviously leaves a lot to be desired.[/quote]
