[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MCPS has pretty much done this, though rather than "eliminating" honors, they made it honors-for-all, which accomplishes the same thing. I'm with the critics on this approach. It's wrongheaded and doesn't work.[/quote] We still have real honors classes. Which school has done this? [/quote] Are you saying that you not only have classes called "Honors" but that they are cohorted so that high achieving kids are together? All schools have "Honors" classes, but the difference is that grade-level classes no longer exist. As a result, "Honors" English for example is just regular English with an extra book. [/quote]
