[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks for your reply, but please be more specific. What grade levels and subjects are you discussing when you say "more is covered" and that there is more "differentiation"...also, what special enrichment courses are occurring for your child? I just haven't found those three items to be true, at least at the middle school level.[/quote] More is covered in science, social studies, and math; about the same material is covered in language arts. Foreign language is about the same. Art is both instructional and practical (private school art is almost exclusively about playing with paint and clay, from what we saw). Our DC takes part in an enhanced art program with supplemental instruction, and is in all honors academic classes (that option is available at all 5 of the ACPS middles in both buildings). We've been in for multiple elementary years and now DC is in middle. [/quote]
