[quote=Anonymous]All APS schools are less rigorous than you would expect. APS students are largely high achieving because we have a very well educated set of parents. APS is not good at gap closing -- look at the numbers for lower SES students and students with disabilities. Dr. Murphy really tanked the system. Dr. Duran has done some good things -- like changing the reading curriculum. Hopefully we can dump the high reliance on 1-1 devices as well. But it's a long road to get there. We went private during COVID and I've seen much more emphasis on fundamentals which APS tends to overlook in favor of technology.[/quote]
