[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At our school, A&P is an easyish (though very useful!) elective. AP Bio is hard -- lots of kids get counseled away from taking it. [/quote] That’s terrible. students shouldn’t be counseled away from classes but informed about content and what is required to be successful and encouraged to take that which they have interest.[/quote] I don’t agree. As long as families can override a recommendation, they should receive honest feedback on the likelihood of a student’s success in a course. Frankly, some gatekeeping for APs would be wise.[/quote] APs don’t need to be gate kept, students need to be prepared to take them which means ensure that foundational courses offer appropriate rigor and depth and that students learn study skills and executive functioning.[/quote]
