[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Weird - my 6th grader just had to write a three page story for her English class.  It was painful, but a good exercise and split into steps (characters, plot outline, rough draft).

She's in the advanced English class at a non-W feeder MCPS middle school.

I thought there was no advanced English any more?[/quote]

All middle school English is named "advanced English."[/quote]

Not true.

Oh?  Is there some middle school in some corner of the county that kept a two-level system, and if so, where?  Because most middle schools have been putting everyone in "Advanced English" for years.[/quote]

Many schools.[/quote]

My understanding is that Central Office required all middle schools to drop the regular English classes a few years back and put everyone in Advanced English.  Very curious if that has changed recently, or if some schools were never made to do it?

Can you please name the school or schools and how long this has been the case?[/quote]
