our 9th grade accelerated class- which so many of you helped me with - will start 10th grade next year. the idea, of course, is to do E in 10th grade, and F, G (the lit F if we need to) in 11th. i have heard of schools who have the kids and their parents sign a contract that they will do the bagrut in the 11th grade only if their magen ("school grade" ) is over a certain grade. otherwise, they will continue in the 12th grade with a regular 5 point class. do any of your schools do this? for E? or only for F, G? And if so, what is the "cutoff" grade? do you think it is a good idea? as usual, thanks for your feedback! sara g -- sara g in israel sarag@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx saragabai@xxxxxxxxx Visit us at The E Zone http://clickit3.ort.org.il/ganyavneenglish ----------------------------------------------- ** Etni homepage - http://www.etni.org or - http://www.etni.org.il ** ** for help - ask@xxxxxxxx ** ** to post to this list - etni@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** -----------------------------------------------
