[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]AAP is basically the same as Gen Ed. except the math is accelerated and they will have a few more in-depth projects (which the parents usually do for the kids anyway), so where the heck this idea that it is for kids that "learn differently" comes from is beyond me.[/quote] It is possible that the reason so many parents are disappointed by the AAP is that the program is not necessarily a good fit for every child. A child will achieve the most in a classroom that best suits his needs and abilities. The Advanced Academics Program is not some separate educational tier where some kids are given a "better" education that is somehow denied to all others. [b]It is a great education for those whose needs it suits, but not so great for those for whom it is not a good fit. [/b]The regular classrooms and their teachers in FCPS provide a great education that suits the needs of many, many children. Teachers use lots of different teaching techniques and strategies that can vary from class to class and year to year depending on the individual students. [/quote]
