[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Question:  Do fairfax county elementary schools in high FARMS schools still place children in groups according to their math, reading, etc abilities? (aside from AAP).  I know I was in an advanced group in my school for reading and math.  We had different assignments and instruction.  I think THIS is the most important thing, regardless of the % of FARMS students.  I heard in MoCo all the kids are taught the same material together no matter what their ability level.[/quote]

I doubt it.  [b]Once the FARMs get high enough, I think most teachers just presume the whole class is pretty dumb and teaches to the lowest common denominator.[/b]  That's why you really want to stay out of the high FARMs schools. [/quote]

Please go away troll. Come back when you've actually crossed the threshold of a Title 1 school and talked with the principal and teachers and actually sat in some classrooms. [/quote]

So can you answer the question about ability grouping in title 1 schools?[/quote]
