[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The UK and European countries do this. This is not our style in America.[/quote] And the tracking begins early in their school systems. There is a reason why American education is superior. It isn’t like UK and European universities are inherently virtuous.[/quote] Not true for the UK. There was no tracking for me until 16 when kids decide if they want to take A levels or not for university entrance. In contrast, my MCPS kids have been tracked since 4th grade.[/quote] The difference is an MCPS kid an be on a low track and then apply themselves in high school and end up at a competitive university. Once you're tracked in Europe, it's game over [/quote]
