[quote=Anonymous]14:22 here - get the sense that some thought it was a put-down of Kilmer to say it was "less competitive" than Longfellow. Really was just trying to give my impression of how the two schools felt as a parent. At Kilmer, the AAP kids just were treated as one team among several at the school. For sure, some got into TJ, but there was no sense that the administration took any more pride in them than the other kids. Longfellow is a very well-run school, and the level of communication to parents was definitely greater than at Kilmer, but the focus on academic achievement was simply more intense and the celebration of awards and academic accolades more pronounced. if someone felt Haycock AAP was too competitive, I think they might well feel the same way about Longfellow AAP.[/quote]
