[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It won’t matter eventually - once every school has level 4 they will slowly move to clustering and no more centers. Then no more aap at middle school. I say 10 years.[/quote] I say we go retro and revert to "tracking" where all the LIV qualified kids are in the same class (or multiple classes if there are more than 20 per school). That would retain the neighborhood school concept but allow teachers to enhance and accelerate for the more advanced group. The current process is inefficient and unfair and gives too much weight to race components when that isn't necessarily a deterrent to high test scores. [/quote] Sweetie, this is the current model.[/quote] Not really. Currently not all ES have LLIV and a lot of LLIV schools spread the AAP kids into various classrooms, with the teachers having many different levels of instruction to deal with. Not great for the families who were told their kids would be getting AAP level work, or the teachers who are spread pretty thin.[/quote]
