[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FCPS could deal with the AAP madness by being willing to simply do what everyone used to do and group classes so there's a quicker one, on level one, and slower one. Perhaps in some schools there are 2 quicker ones and one on level, or vice versa but it's the entirely broken "one room school house" model that is driving the huge AAP appetite - because it does NOT work well in K-2 to have these hugely mixed classes and it won't work well in 3 - 5/6 either.

Idealistic, but it's not going to stop the nutty parents on this board and in the schools who complain when their kid is in the bottom group. Taking it out of the teachers' hands and putting the qualification for being in the advanced/AAP class is the solution to having parents arguing with admins and teachers about their kid's placement.

When I was in middle, we were in "sections." So 7-A was the top group, 7-B was the next level, and on down. Even back in the 1990s, there were parents who went insane when their kid was in section C or below. [/quote]

Believe it or not, our school had the "tortoises" and the "hares". :shock: [/quote]
