[quote=Anonymous]The reason I hoped my daughter would get into AAP was because the gen ed curriculum has been so watered down with zero chances for creativity or problem solving. At our school 2nd grade was made up of mind-numbing SOL-minded stuff like spending two whole weeks filling in the names of rivers in the US on ditto sheets over and over again. The teacher said she had to keep going over just the basic facts until EVERY child could do it, even if some kids learned the material in the first day. The AAP curriculum is really what the standard curriculum should be. And so many parents have pushed their kids into the center (because of the terrible gen ed) that AAP has been so slowed done it no longer challenges gifted students. [/quote]
