When LLIV is at all schools, they won't call it clustering. And it is just a term. LLIV parents can't truly complain if they are receiving AAP curriculum/LLIV services.

This.

I've seen this in another report. They wanted this implemented in 4-5 years. It think we are in year 4. There's another report out there that lists which schools don't have LLIV - very few.

So is your thinking that they will eliminate the center programs within a year or two? Or with a fairly large 15-20% of parents currently invested in centers, is that impractical?

That is clearly the goal but parents keep choosing to send their kids to the center schools. So it won't happen next year, at least.

Then they need to stop calling “cluster model” LLIV. If it’s not full time level iv instruction, it’s not the same as the center.

I don’t understand how any teacher would be okay doing clustering. I teach at a Local Level 4 and there is one class. If they moved to mixing all of the kids so we had a gazillion different levels then I would switch schools.

Looking at the percentages of students cited as "economically disadvantaged" and "ESL" and the emphasis on equal outcomes for all, the average/above average MC kids at FCPS are likely to get very little attention. I'm retired and my own kids are adults, but I'm a grandparent of kids who will attend FCPS, and I'm worried on their behalf.

Your grandkids are probably going to attend a school that isn't failing so they'll be fine. If I'm wrong and they will be attending a failing school, then you should be glad that their school is on the books to get some financial assistance. If they're attending a failing school and FCPS was hanging the school out to dry, then that would actually be something to be upset about.

Sorry, me again. I just read OP’s post again and I am not sure they were asking only about the year 3 expenses to implement recommendations. Here is information about the whole study which FCPS acted upon in a three year plan: https://www.fcps.edu/academics/academic-overview/advanced-academic-programs-aap/review-fairfax-county-public-schools.

That's part of it but I think there's more. Actually, I'm not sure if that was from the external review report or just a Gatehouse plan.

Local level IV at all schools

What does this mean from the FCPS budget press release?

"$1.6 million for implementation of the final implementation of recommendations from the advanced academic external review to support students in Advanced Academic Programs."

What are the final recommendations?
