[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This was our experience when our oldest son entered middle school. It was heart-breaking. The solution we found -- and this is not for everyone, I know -- was to move him to a very diverse private school. We did the same with our two younger children. It has been an entirely different experience than what we encountered in MCPS. BTW -- I'm not sure this matters -- but we are Caucasion. [/quote] It almost sounds like you are blaming MCPS. They cannot force black students into AP classes. Counselors can suggest and ask but unless the student is prepared for the heavy workload they won't take AP classes. Many times black students are just not prepared for this type of class.[/quote]
