[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Even if OP is a troll, I actually learned something from this thread. DS is just starting 2nd grade, so if he makes AAP, then I will have to make a decision about whether he should switch schools to attend a center school. I realized that  I actually would want him in a class that is solely AAP students and not mixed.[/quote]

It depends on the school. My school is a LL4 and has one AAP class per grade. The class is 60-70 percent Level 4, with the rest filled with Level 3 or high achieving students. You would not know who was Level 4 if you walked into my classroom. Some of my Level 3 kids are better students than my Level 4. We also have kids come back yearly from the center. I would research what model your base school uses first. [/quote]

Your school is an exception. Most of the schools use the clustering model. My conspiracy theory is that they use the clustering model to have the AAP curriculum in all classrooms, and in turn raise school's overall student test scores. They could careless if AAP students stay or go.

Why would the need the clustering model for that? If gen ed students do well with AAP curriculum, nothing is stopping the school from using it in gen ed classrooms without needing clustering.[/quote]
