[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The real solution is as simple as taking ESOL kids "off the books" from the high school itself even if they don't need to go to a separate center off-site. That is how some of the FCPS Interagency Alternative programs work. They unenroll kids from the base school and enroll them into the alternative program, but they still physically go to the base school and attend alternative courses with alternative teachers on-site. By enrolling into a separate program, they don't ding the base school test scores and instead ding the alternative program which nobody worries about. It's a genuine way to highlight that the typical base school kids and teachers are doing just fine, and the kids who need significant extraordinary help are served without making it seem like the base school is failing everyone.[/quote] Off balance-sheet transactions worked great for Enron, so I’m sure they’ll work great for FCPS as well.
