[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DC was in the AAP program but (for various reasons, scheduling, etc.) ended up taking Honors Science 8 instead of AAP Science 8. So DC had a lot of friends in the other class. They covered the same curriculum in both classes, but DC reported that friends in the AAP Science class had a lot more projects to do. And FWIW, DC is now at TJ and doing fine there. Frankly, I was perfectly happy that DC got to "miss out" on doing a lot of the project work since I think that most of it is useless anyway.[/quote] This is what I've come to feel about AAP as a whole (one of my kids went through it). My other kids are happy to [b]not[/b] be in AAP and not have to deal with the useless extra projects - and so am I! Once they get to high school, then they can take AP and honors classes - and those are the only ones that matter anyhow. I'd much rather not have them burned out in elementary and middle school.[/quote]
