[quote=Anonymous]It's two--English and History--but your point is taken. Everyone needs to take a deep breath. Nobody knows how this is going to pan out. Might it lead to watering down of rigor? Maybe. Might it maintain the current standards (after all, there is a curriculum that the AP certifies) but a lot of kids struggle as a result? Yep, that's possible too. But it's also possible that the schools will keep the standards and put in place a lot of supports so that a lot more kids can achieve at a higher level. NONE OF US KNOW YET (despite a lot of folks talking like they do). It is also worth noting that Wilson has something like 30 AP classes...so, if you are really concerned about the rigor of these two courses lessening, have your kid load up on other ones. They are not going to decide that everyone needs to take AP European History or AP Physics or AP Chemistry.[/quote]
