[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]why is it that if DCPS doesn't offer tracking DCPS is trash?[/quote]

it’s not “tracking.” it’s offering classes that are at the appropriate level for each student. a school district that forbids schools from teaching students appropriately is not great. not gonna say trash. [/quote]

+1. If you have an on-grade-level kid (not even advanced, just performing at grade level according to the curriculum standards set by DCPS itself) many of these schools do not offer a course that focuses on grade level instruction. That's a huge issue. In earlier grades, teachers can differentiate to some extent (though this also means kids at or above grade level will need to be somewhat self-directed, so I hope your grade level child doesn't need extra help with staying on task or figuring things out on their own) but by MS, this becomes impractical.

But parents who want to send their kids to a school where their child will receive actual instruction to advance their knowledge past it's current level are selfish and "inequitable". It's that attitude that is being criticized.[/quote]
