[quote=Anonymous]It's been fascinating to read this thread because you learn that different middle schools take very different approaches. I had always just assumed it was the same across the county. For example, my daughter is an 8th grader at Takoma Park, and they definitely do not combine advanced and regular English classes. I asked her about it after reading this thread and she said hers is an advanced class, everyone doing the same thing, no differentiation in material. As for foreign language, when we entered that school, they seemed to encourage incoming 6th graders to sign up for language, even the full A/B class if they felt they could handle it. My daughter did that and is now in Spanish 3. There was never any mention of a reading class, advanced or otherwise. [/quote]
