[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree that the whole AAP system needs revamping.  All children should benefit from a more challenging and structured environment and better teacher training.

AAP is no longer for the truly gifted. We prep our kids, send them to test prep classes, to give them the edge needed to get the scores.

I would be surprised if half the kids in AAP have an IQ over 140. I am not trying to knock AAP as I think it was created with a sound purpose; however, it has outlived it's usefulness and needs changing.

From what I have seen, GenPop in Public School is a joke.  AAP is not much more challenging, but still more of a challenge than general.  So yes, most kids would thrive with more stimulation.  Take out the kids that need extra help and go from there.

Sorry to be slightly irritated here, but I am increasingly irritated with the decline in our Public schools :-) [/quote]

well if all children were in then it wouldn't be for the advanced now would it and would fail to meet the requirements of state law to accommodate the advanced learners. [/quote]
