[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] My advice for you would be to go private.[/quote] Fellow Deal parent who doesn't like your advice. The OP is prudent to be concerned about the lack of tracking, given the diversity at the school. Some of the low-SES kids would clearly benefit from more attention in "regular" classes while most of the high-SES kids and especially bright and disciplined kids would benefit from from being placed in honors classes and/or test-in magnet programs. Nobody advises you to "go private" in MoCo of Fairfax if you think your kid is a good fit for middle school honors classes. Jeez! I thought Basis was tracking for English, or about to start. Anybody know? [/quote]
