[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Any experience with middle school honors vs. regular classes? What is the "honors" difference? Who can take honors?[/quote] At least for Frost they went over all of this in excruciating detail multiple times starting around January. There were in-person presentations to parents, emails, PowerPoints emailed of the presentations after the presentations, discussions with kids, everything you could want to help you figure it all out. But the quick answer is that everyone can take honors (though kids in AAP who are automatically enrolled in AA instead, which is nearly identical to honors but not quite, unless the parent requests differently) and the MS typically encourages all kids to have at least 1 honors course, more if they have multiple areas of academic strength.[/quote]
