[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think their goal is a lower population. Hence the new testing format. The number of kids in AAP has gotten out of control and is negatively impacting genEd classes. I have heard this argument before-how exactly is GenEd being disadvantaged? [b]The AAP students bring in more money and resources for the school-[/b]why is that a disadvantage?[/quote] Can you explain this please?[/quote] I don't understand the money connection, either, except perhaps for schools that are AAP centers. In terms of how general ed is impacted, I see AAP as less a "brain drain" than a "behavior drain" on gen ed classrooms. I've opined before that I see relatively few gifted children in the centers but many bright, conscientious kids who follow directions and behave well in order to succeed. These kids are great motivators in the gen ed classroom and help us retain good teachers.[/quote]
