[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree! I also like CKLA and the 20 minute WIN time helps but the classroom peers are a huge distraction due to behaviors and not being on the same level. I know compacted math next year will be good for my DC. Currently the teacher has her helping other kids that are struggling.

I haven't talked yet to the school about what their plan is for next year in terms of ELC but I plan on doing it.

[quote=Anonymous]The cohorting is my biggest concern. I like CKLA so far but my kid could really benefit from being in a cohort with students ready and able to go deeper more quickly. Doing away with cohorting is going to be incredibly detrimental. Just having a weekly 20 minute “enrichment” doesn’t do it…[/quote][/quote]

Consider asking them in a public setting like a PTA meeting and then ask for clarification when they say "We will be moving to an exciting new curriculum with enrichment for highly able students."

Ask them what the enrichment consists of exactly.

Ask them how it compares to ELC.

Ask them whether the enrichment class will be cohorted together.

Maybe bring some friends and split up the questions between you. The only way you are going to get straight answers is to ask, then ask for clarification, then keep asking. You are going to need to be pushier than you are used to being. [/quote]
