[quote=Anonymous]My DS attended Mosaic and hated it. He was bored out of his mind. Classes were generally quite large and often crammed into trailers. The teachers largely focused on the kids who didn't belong in AAP, so math involved constant review and remediation, and language arts meant that his reading group almost never saw the teacher. They didn't do any of the fun extensions that are normally given at other AAP centers. The entire month before the SOL was spent on SOL review bootcamp, which is torture for the AAP kids. They didn't have any of the fun academic extracurriculars that are common at almost every other AAP center. Most of the teachers weren't very good. The homework they had was entirely absurd busywork. Like to prepare for Wordmasters, they had to write out their vocab words like 5-10 times, but in rainbow letters or spooky letters or things like that. Maybe things have changed, but in math, they made them do way too much Dreambox. Anyway, STAY AT PRIVATE![/quote]
