[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am just looking for simple clarification. No BS or political answers or why FCPS is spending on this .... plain simple bullet points on why AAP is better then the regular curriculum. What are the advantages in the long run? [/quote] It depends on where you are in the county. In some schools the gen-ed classrooms are using the AAP curriculum and they have wide and deep numbers of children who are from Lake Wobegon. SO the difference is small. In other schools, advanced/accelerated math is just not offered, so the center AP program offers a high level math option (one-three years difference by the time the student enters 7th grade) and faster paces and more in depth curriculum in the other three core subjects. Then, there are more schools that are between the two extremes. [/quote]
