[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We've been told many times over the years that the whole point of registering in Jan/ Feb was so that the school could hire staff to accommodate all of the student's requests. That's why the school has trouble making changes late, because they have already staffed to "what you asked for." My kids, 10th and 7th, have only ever gotten their top picks so I'm surprised to hear otherwise here.[/quote] We’ve heard the same, that students’ preferences tend to stay consistent. There’s a group of passionate kids that leans toward advanced subjects like math, science, tech, and languages, while the larger group of diverse kids opt for no-surprise courses like band, orchestra, and similar options. To each their own, of course. But it seems like FCPS is insistent that even students who aren't as academically focused should be included in AAP, perhaps to meet their diversity goals?[/quote]
