[quote=Anonymous]AAP is not gifted and talented, the name says that. It is advanced academics. I am sure that there are a good number of kids in Gen Ed that would do fine in AAP. I am sure there are AAP kids who would do fine in Gen Ed. But there are kids that need something that is more advanced and challenging. I do wish that FCPS would develop a Advanced LA class like they did for Advanced Math and that every school started the Advanced Math in third grade. This would help a ton so that kids who are ahead in Math or LA had a class that challenged them. It would reduce the push for parents of kids who are ahead in Math but not LA or LA but not Math to get into AAP so that their kid is able to do work at the right level in their strong suit. Honestly, I think that the biggest issue with AAP is the parents who tell their kids that they are special because they are in AAP which turns into kids thinking they are better than others at school.
