[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A teacher here.... It amazes me how important it is to parents to have their kid in AAP.  Most don't belong but God forbid the parents hear that!   Does it matter to the child's future? NO!   Many parents do not send their children to the AAP middle school and once the child gets to high school everyone is in the same place.   Do you really believe that elementary school AAP will help your child be more successful in the future? Highly unlikely!  Many of the AAP kids have been groomed by their parents and constantly told how brilliant they are.  Many therefore have no work ethic as they believe they are God given geniuses.   So many of the AAP kids do so little and no matter how bright they may  actually be, do not belong there as they produce nada!  Parents, your snowflake needs to actually do something to justify their AAP placement!!!   You, as parents, have set many of your children up for immense disappointment when reality sets in and they actually need to do something as they get older to justify their placement.  I also do interviews for my alma mater Harvard and it is so sad how many kids think they belong but based on their work ethic are immediately tossed into the reject pile.  Focus on work ethic and discipline parents.  Worry not about AAP![/quote]

So there's the report card and parent/teacher conference.
My kids in AAP are thriving and getting pretty good report card.[/quote]
