[quote=Anonymous]You can apply, but depending on your goals it may not be worth it. Honors curriculum is open enrollment. Some might say, particularly at certain schools, that it impacts the quality of the cohort. I had one go through AAP and one through non-AAP Honors classes at our MS and can honestly say there was very little difference. Maybe an extension/extra project here and there (in Social Studies, primarily, IIRC) but that was about it. And the students weren't significantly different in performance or behavior. Math is separate from AAP, and FWIW my non-AAP kid went from 6th grade math to Math7H (basically skipping a year) with very little trouble. We did some prep work the summer before to catch her up a bit.[/quote]
