[quote=Anonymous]OP, nearly all privates in this area offer AP. The actual type and number of courses offered will vary of course, but this is also true of the publics. WJ in MoCo has a robust offering of APs, but also has an application only program that includes extra support for AP students. This has never made sense to me. Why accept only top 8th grade students to a program that provides extra help for AP? Top students at other schools are earning 4s and 5s without this scaffolding. But I digress. The point is that you can find a good college prep program for your DD almost anywhere in this area. So think about what other factors matter to you. Sounds like you don't want single sex. Scratch Visi and Stone Ridge. Is your DD athletic? Does she want to run for student government or participate in a robotics club? Are you always going to drive her or would she ever take public transportation to school?[/quote]
