[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FCPS's general ed program now caters to special ed and ESOL students. Unfortunately "gifted" is regular ed in many other districts.[/quote] I think this is very school dependent. For starters, our school has less than 1% ESOL and very few FARMS. I have to go back to look at the special ed numbers but actually many kids in AAP are special ed too. We have a ton of 2E kids in AAP with IEPs, my child included. I also know the work my daughter is doing is not regular in other districts, at least not anecdotally. Whenever my child visits her cousins or our friends who have kids in the same grade, the parents are usually amazed at the work my DD is working on (she's always bringing homework or some project to work on because she stays having something due). I'm not suggesting your point isn't correct for some centers and Level IV base schools, but in FCPS AAP is very dependent on the school, principal and teacher. It's not one size fits all in the county. [/quote]
