[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MCPS does not call everything Honors now and yes there are plenty of in level classes and plenty of kids talking them (Despite what DCUM will tell you). The only place where this is absolutely a problem is English (MS and Grade 9/10). Choosing an advance SS, Science or Math is a different experience.[/quote]

What percentage of MCPS high schools do not opt into the Honors-for-All model that is dominant in the DCC and NEC?[/quote]

Many of the posted documents on school sites still show on-level classes being offered, but in reality they will only offer the Honors class. With the exception of math, which as others have said, still often has on-level options.[/quote]

So in other words, the PP who is attempting to act like Honors-for-All isn't pervasive throughout MCPS high schools, is attempting to obfuscate and gaslight. [/quote]

Not gaslighting.  [b]There are plenty of  science, math, and social studies classes not labeled honors or AP/IB thus they are on-level.[/b]  Just because DCUM is saying only honors classes are offered and everything below that is remedial doesn’t make it so.[/quote]

They may show up in the course listings but do you know if there is anyone currently enrolled in them? At our HS, only honors English, science and social studies classes are available, in terms of the main graduation pathway classes. There are on-level electives of course, and there are some on-level math classes.[/quote]

My kid is in the Bridge program.  All classes are on grade level.  It’s terrible if you need true grade level which is now honors.  [/quote]
