[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you for that voice of reason

There is 0 reason for any kid/ family to be doing things at home to accelerate.

If the kid is extremely smart they should just skip a grade.  The obsession of thinking so many kids are bored and need more challenging content is ridiculous

In the real world no one cares when you took algebra.[/quote]

I am not going to ask the school to skip my kid a grade when he is the youngest kid in his class. Social skills and socialization is pretty important. I can more easily meet his academic needs with enrichment then I can deal with his social needs by having him in a higher level grade.

i don’t care when he takes algebra, if I did I would have him skip grades. [/quote]

Guess what your special snowflake is fine without AAP.  The whole program is a sham.  High school is tracked and guess what there will be plenty of Non AAP kids in the top classes.[/quote]

I don't knw why people think this is a compelling argument. I couldn't care less about who will be in my kid's high school classes. It has absolutely nothing to do with AAP placement in ES.[/quote]
