[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A word of advice - if you don't think your child will be in AAP, do not move to an area that has an AAP center as your neighborhood school.  They are the worst of all worlds for GE kids.[/quote]

Huge generalization. Maybe the case at PP's school but not at all the case at our kid's school, which is an AAP center. OP, you really do need to turn to the FCPS information and if possible try to talk to families in the neighborhood where you move.

I'd honestly get off DCUM altogether on this topic as people tend to come to vent about AAP or complain about general ed "versus" AAP etc. as above. And they make big statements about how "all" of AAP is run when their experiences don't necessarily apply to the whole AAP structure or to schools other than the one they know. Doesn't necessarily help you judge what's best for YOUR child. You have time to talk to other parents and teachers about it--AAP doesn't start until third grade. [/quote]

Let me guess - your kid is in AAP.   :roll: [/quote]
