[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Yes, but, do KIPP and SEED deal well with kids in 5th grade ALREADY on grade level and advanced? Is that what those schools are/can be about? Maybe different students need different kinds of schools and there is no one model that fits all? Maybe two great middle schools can look entirely different. I think that is a subtlety that gets lost in these discussions.[/quote] KIPP parent here. Yes, KIPP can/will deal with 5th graders already on and above grade level which is why they've opened elementary schools at their 3 campuses (the WILL campus will have one opening next year). One of my son's teachers commented last year how KIPP is now having to shift from 'bringing everyone up' to 'making sure the advanced kids don't get bored.'[/quote]
