[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid (now a senior at Yorktown) has not found any of the intensified courses to be particularly a lot of work (particularly the ninth grade schedule of intensive English and World block, Bio, and Math, in combination with a Language, PE, & an Elective (such as engineering). I don't remember my kid ever having more that 2 hours of homework in an evening (and that would be unusual). Some of the AP history and Science classes can be extremely time intensive with busy work, like copying down 10-20 pages of the text book on a nightly basis for AP-USH. [/quote] Thank you to you and the others who are encouraging a more rigorous path. I have the same feeling about encouraged mediocrity. I appreciate your taking the time to respond. We don’t know a lot of people in her grade or upper grades. [/quote]
