No, "tracking" is just having different academic routes - what the school is already doing. If you can find someone who has a strong opinion on the difference between tracking based on standardized tests vs local grades, I will be very surprised.

Well, it would be tracking either way, but it wouldn't be called such if it was entirely informal, which is what it appeared based on the OP.
