[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In general, center schools do not principal place students into AAP classes.  Some centers may do so but they aren't "supposed" to.  At our center school, it does not happen.  [/quote]

I thought they gave every AAP kid an opportunity to attend a center if they wanted to.  That would mean that they can't always have exactly enough kids to fill the class.  What do they do with the extra spots?

They either have small classes or they do principal place. Our base is our center and parents I know told me their kids were principal placed into my DD's class in 4th. It didn't happen under the first 2 principals at the school, but started with the 3rd (yeah, lot of administrative turnover at that school).

It had zero, and I do mean zero, impact on the class's ability to continue progressing through the material at the usual pace. That is because there are many kids who are able to handle the pace of AAP whose parents don't refer or they aren't admitted.

There were kids who had been admitted by the central committee - and I know that because they came to the center from a different ES base - who were far less able to handle the work per things I saw during Covid online school.[/quote]
