[quote=Anonymous]there is no meaningful differentiation for humanities in APS other than AP classes (and even for those classes, students can pretty much self-select as far as I can tell). My kids only read one book in 8th grade intensified English (The Giver - other classes read Animal Farm) and they do not necessarily read full books independently. This is not just an APS problem though - see this article: https://www.theatlantic.com/books/archive/2023/03/children-reading-books-english-middle-grade/673457/ It is something that makes me wish I switched my kids to private but there really are not a lot of strong non-denominational private schools close to Arlington and my kids really did not want a long commute.
