[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No private schools offer APs anymore. There are a couple opinions on why. One is that the scores were not good and this way they don’t have to report them. There’s definitely data to suggest that was the case. What the private schools will tell you is that this allows them to teach flexibly and use innovations and not teach a specific curriculum to a specific test. But a lot of private school teachers have little to know actual teaching certification or training, and having a rigorous curriculum with clear milestones is actually a good thing sometimes.[/quote] Not true, a number of private schools in the area offer AP classes. GDS and Sidwell don’t, but others do. [/quote]
