[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DCPS Middle Schools don't have honors classes and regular classes? [/quote]

no.  They have different levels of math and language and the rest of the classes are all one level. [/quote]

No longer true. Stuart Hobson now has two or three levels for science, ELA and social studies, along with ELA, math and Spanish (which they've had for a decade).[/quote]

Interesting!  Deal does not and I don't think hardy does either. [/quote]

Because they don’t need to. Most students are on grade level coming into Deal.[/quote]

They need honors classes.  Not all of the students are “on grade level;”  some are beyond it.[/quote]

PP, you are myopic. Yes there are above average students at Deal and Hardy, and also at many other schools in DC EVEN eotp. My point is that SH has to have 3 levels in order to hide the fact that there are many students below grade level as well as ones who are where they supposed to be. The fact that one is called Honors is not the relevant part.

If there were Honors classes at Deal and Hardy, would there then need to be “honors for all”? :-)[/quote]
