[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can people name schools and whether they have advanced English for all or offer regular and advanced?

I’ll start: Silver Creek MS — all students placed in “advanced” English. [/quote]

Westland MS--all students placed in advanced English-- guidance counselor confirmed it was the only option even though it was called "advanced".  Honestly, I don't think people need to spend a lot of time trying to disprove a person who made a comment that differentiated English classes exist in middle school.  People post all sorts of junk on DCUM, because it's anonymous and there's no accountability.  I'm always shocked when people seem to take whatever is posted as "fact."[/quote]

Some schools chose to only offer Advanced due to parent demand. Others because they believed it was more equitable. I’m not going to dox myself, but my advisory has students whose schedules do not say Advanced.[/quote]

I don’t believe you if you don’t name the school. [/quote]

You don’t have to believe anyone on the internet. The current catalog lists both courses at every grade level (p.10). If Central Office told schools they could only offer Advanced, why would they still list both courses and provide detailed descriptions?[/quote]

Then link to the course catalog.  You have to have a pretty high level of paranoia to think someone is going to "dox" you for naming a school.  [/quote]

+1. Link to the individual school course catalogs that offer it. Not the general MCPS course catalog. Show us the schools.[/quote]
