[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know it’s an AAP Center. Is it a very high pressure school? What are homework levels like? Thanks.[/quote] My son is an AAP student in the 8th grade at RCMS. He's consistently been involved in 1 or 2 afterschool programs. He's in swimming three days a week and does meets throughout the season. He plays clarinet in the school band and is practicing a saxophone we rented for him as I type. He also games on his laptop and/or XBOX every day. He goes to bed by 11pm each night and has a 4.0. He says he gets lots of work, but he's never pulled all-nighters the way I had to when I was in middle school. His two best friends at RCMS are also in AAP and have a similar amount of activities. I don't know if they feel bogged down by homework and perhaps lost sleep over it, but they all seem very happy to be at Carson.[/quote]
