[quote=Anonymous]I think there are advantages and disadvantages. Fairfax AAP serves everyone who qualifies, which seems like a net positive. But in reality, you hear a lot of complaints about it being “watered down,” since it takes so many students. Also, since the top students (defined pretty broadly) are pulled out of the classroom, that raises the stakes for the kids who just miss the cutoff, so there’s a lot of stress about getting in. MCPS always has qualified kids who aren’t pulled out for special programming, so a bright kid in a regular classroom is more likely to have a peer group. TLDR; read the AAP board. It’s not all roses on the other side. [/quote]
