Thanks, glad it doesn't matter in middle school. I really don't like the have/have not element to this at the elementary school level. I looked in the AAP forum and some of the threads and posts kinda made me nauseous. |
NP. A lot of families move to FCPS for AAP. The ones who do not like it may choose APS which doesn't have a GT program to speak or. Fwiw, I think pressure cooker exists entirely separately from AAP and only coincides sometimes. |
What is APS? |
I agree that the "pressure cooker" element in this area is about parents, not the AAP program. AAP is just a resource for kids who need it, just like any other resource in public school. That some people get in a huff about it is their problem, not the program's.
I also think any have/have not issues around AAP have *way* more to do with parents than kids. |
Dp. I’m surmising Arlington Public Schools |
