How about your kids' elementary schools?


Shaina's school has had ability grouping for reading and math since she was in
first grade. (She is now in 6th.) The school has mixed grade classes and, for
each class (which has 2 or 3 grades) there are, typically, 4-6 different groups
for reading and math. (Kids from multiple classes will be clustered together,
so Shaina's math and reading teachers will not necessarily be her regular
classroom teacher.)

The top level classes, incidently, constitute the school's 'gifted program.'
