[quote=Anonymous]@12:00 There just aren't enough students functioning at the level you describe to merit an allocation of funds to meet their ostensible need for segregated classes. If an advanced class isn't good enough for them (which is what an AP class is), then too bad. FYI, I don't think placing 110 IQ kids in the same class with 125-140+ IQ kids is a bad thing, as long as the 110 kids can make grade. Frankly, the super-efficient-while-performing kids can benefit from classes with kids who have to work hard to get the same grade. The empathy learned (assuming they're capable of learning empathy) will help them to get along later in life.[/quote]
