[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think anyone is judging Kenmore but its dance PE program (although I do think it's cool). I would be interested in hearing about Algebra. I have heard that the advanced math classes are very large at Kenmore, like approaching 30 kids. This is much larger than other middle schools we've looked at. This is a concern - are they putting resources in other areas? [/quote] Looking at the class size report, that's not true. The Algebra 1 classes range from 22-26 and Alg 1 Int. range from 16-25. However, there are fewer kids taking Algebra 1 at Kenmore -- 3 Algebra 1 and 3 Algebra 1 Intensified classes vs. 3&5 at TJ, 3&7 at Gunston. Still, that's about 60 kids taking the higher level Algebra which seems a reasonable sized peer group. Similarly about 60 kids taking intensified Geometry.
