Admin wants to level our high schoolers into ELD 1, 2, and 3, which would mean mixing up freshmen and seniors...our staff is against it, but they are reacting to ELPA scores which, according to those who don't understand the strands, look abyssmal. I need some moral support here..,.,

abysmal - sorry, posted too soon!

What do you think of the leveling? What would your instructional services look like for each level?

My students are mixed by level AND grade in my classes! I feel that having more homogenous levels would be more beneficial than by grade. Why do you think your staff is against mixing grades?

And for moral support- there are benefits to both! Students like finding things in common with each other! And you will learn a lot about grouping lol
