[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks. What are the AAP classes in middle school? Are the AAP classes at higher level than honor classes?

Does this mean, similar to center elementary school, there are Level IV students with their AAP classes and general students with their regular classes but with the option to take honor classes?  [/quote]

It depends.  IME, with my children, the teacher was the bigger determinant to rigor than any differences between Honors or AAP in MS.  The differences were too small to be easily identified, if they existed at all.  The exception, of course, is math and then everyone is placed in their appropriate math class regardless of Gen-ed or AAP designation.  Others on this board have indicated that their experience was different and they saw larger differences between the Honors and AAP classes.  The curriculum and the extensions are the same IME.

Our experiences have been as you described - little to no difference between AAP and Honors classes.  We've had kids in both, and I honestly don't even know why they make a distinction.  [/quote]
