[quote=Anonymous]I'm a FCPS teacher. I taught IB (International Baccalaureate) for six years and currently teach AP at an elite high school. Recently, we were told our child made this "pool." Though I've taught AA for years, I didn't even know what the CogAt was, so she obviously didn't prepare. I have mixed feelings about AAP because it can go either very well or very poorly by the time students get to HS. Let's just say I have little sympathy for parents who put an exorbitant amount of pressure on their children because I can see what it can do. In HS, AP and IB are open-access, and I'm fine with that. As far as differentiation in the classroom, my daughter likes helping students, and frankly, I'm happy about that most of the time. So if she doesn't make it, I won't be heart-broken and she'll be just as, "Oh, well" about it and move on. [/quote]
