[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is there tracking in the schools south of 50? Or is that forbidden because it makes a school within a school?[/quote]

No tracking in APS. There's supposed to be differentiation within the classroom. Some schools are doing well with this. Others, not so much. [/quote]

My child is in one of the much maligned-title one schools.  We have been very happy with the differentiation in the classroom, the increased support and individual attention from having more staff  in the classroom  and very happy with teachers and our child's experience.  Some of the title one schools also have a "young scholars" program which brings a second enrichment/gifted teacher into the school.  This person works with anyone who is identified but also specifically looks at kids from backgrounds where potential can be missed.  I believe this is part of a test.   The children are often working in small groups and there are often multiple adults in the classroom.  [/quote]
