[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]The 4th grade CES curriculum is extremely challenging at PBES. The 5th grade teacher this year seems less set on pushing the CES curriculum and appears to pick and choose what he teaches in contrast to last year where the students were challenged to a very high level. Our 5th grader has much less classwork and homework than last year - by leaps and bounds....He's happy, but it is hard to get over the idea that 5th should be more challenging than 4th....[/quote]

The CES programs really vary across the county. They have the flexibility to teach up to but also below what is in the CES curriculum based on the capabilities of the class. Some CES programs have very high flyers and other CES programs are filled with kids who are smart but would never make the cut in the other programs. [b]The MAP scores at PBES are not very good in comparison to other CES programs [/b]so going slower in 5th grade here is good practice. [/quote]

How can you possibly know this? MAP scores aren't reported. [/quote]

!!!!!! You can't know this, overzealous parent. Please. [/quote]

Just another frustrated W parent expressing their TPMS/Blair envy by slamming elementary school kids. So sad. :([/quote]
