[quote=Anonymous]My kids came though Oakton, and, at least a couple years ago, the LOIV program had made the school environment toxic. The bright class and the other classes. The parents who were pissed there was a “bright class”. They principal placed to fill the class out, and there was a lot of ugliness about whose kid got pupil placed.  So, they stopped pupil placing, and their was ugliness about the AAP kids being in a class of 15 times while the other classes had 30-32.  Oakton was too small, and parents were too competitive to make LLIV work. IMO, they need to drop the LLIV program.  Although they won’t, because parents did not want to send their kids to Sunrise.

Also, if you put a group of (especially girls)  together for 4 years and tell them their are the smart class, by 6th grade, some of them are bullies and mean girls. To other AAP kids and to GE.  My own kids were not in that group, but did not get bullied. I know kids who were bullied so badly they refused to go to school.

And I say this as parent whose kids went through AAP.

DC1’s teachers were uniformly excellent. DC2 really hit terrible luck and only had a couple good teachers. So it depended who your kid got.

But, as I said, my info is a couple years old. Not sure what has happened with the LLIV program since them. Maybe the principal hasn’t been able to make positive changes [/quote]
