[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It can be fairly dramatic when you go from a low/middle SES school to a high SES AAP center. Quieter and calmer classes which generally leads to more productivity and just a better experience. The math acceleration is a thing too, and definitely worth it. If you are in a higher SES neighborhood, it may not seem much different. [/quote] This. Our oldest went to an AAP center at a school that wasn't high SES. Without the AAP center it would have been even lower SES I'm sure. I don't know about the other classes at the center, but there was much less nonsense in his AAP class than in our younger two children's classrooms at our base school. Our base also did not offer Advanced Math until 5th grade. I think that's gone away now but it's definitely something to consider.[/quote]
