[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]leveled classes represent an attempt to meet students who are at a range of different abilities at the level where they are at without fully preventing students from moving between the groups.  its a huge improvement over simply teaching to the middle.  i dont fully understand the its not truly accelerated criticism against grouping the top cohort of kids together in one class in order to be able to provide that class with some additional challenge.[/quote]

Ok but have you actually looked at the abysmal stats of some of the DCPS middle and high schools??

Take Eastern where in 2019, in math 2% were on grade level or above.  This 2% were most likely on grade level.  Then Covid hit and numbers got worst which I’m not going to spend time to drill down.

So there is no wide range of abilities.  All the kids are below grade level.  There is no critical number of kids to have a class even on grade level and if you have a high performing kid forget about it.
