[quote=Anonymous]There are a lot of parents on this board who are trying to make themselves feel ok about the fact that their kids were not accepted into AAP. The fact is that the AAP curriculum is superior (which I why non-AAP parents keep saying their kids sHould have access to it), the peer group is stronger academically and more motivated, without ESOL kids, etc being pushed in and the strongest teachers tend to get AAp certified. The vast majority of the kids accepted to TJ, the NMSFs, etc. will be kids coming out of the AAP centers. Can you get a good education in FCPS in GE? Of course. But in most schools, the education is better in AAP-- just ask parents whose kids were GE until AAP selection in 3rd-- it's a huge difference. [/quote]
