[quote=Anonymous]I have an older kid in the AAP program. I understand why precisely they renamed the program from GT to AAP. The program is definitely advanced in academics. Giftedness may not support your child in succeeding in Academics. The term "gifted" means the child can be good in one aspect but AAP pertains to only Academic. It doesn't matter if a child can do a 1000 piece puzzle or do complex structure in LEGO or even play an advanced level of Chess. Can the child learn things faster when it comes to Arithmetic/Vocabulary/Comprehension? If not, AAP is not going to be really enriching for that child. May be the kid will be an Einstein/Edison and can think outside the box. But will not be recognized in academics.[/quote]
