[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For AAP students, SOL is not always a best way to measure kid's academic performance. Keep in mind AAP teachers are supposed to teach creative thinking, independent study, research methodology, teamwork by team project, etc. They still need to ensure their student to pass SOL, but that is not the only goal as in Non-AAP class. I know this by experience with my son who is in 5th grade this year. He spent most of his time doing project work during the school year, and only focuses on SOL near the end. He got all pass advance in three tests, with a perfect score in Reading.  He told me he did not expect to do that well in Reading, because he had six projects to do in the month of May and June and that how he spent time in school. I told him I do not really care more about his ability to research, write up presentation, or put together science project than the SOL score. [/quote]

That's interesting. My 6th grade AAP son gets mostly 4s on tests, projects and report cards but usually Pass Proficient on his SOLs. [/quote]
