[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, I know that. But I'm focused on my non-high performing kid that could benefit from a positive academic peer cohort. That is what I was trying to disentangle and figure out.[/quote] don't listen to the other PP. While it is true that all schools have some AP classes and some kids who take AP classes, the peer cohort size is not the same. Some HS have more AP classes on offer than others because of the higher demand. So, those are the ones that have a larger high achieving peer cohort. Some kids need to be surrounded by higher achieving peer cohort to pull them up, otherwise, they just end up languishing. The peer group has an outsized influence on teens. My kids are at RM, so I'm not saying that this kind of high achieving peer cohort is only available at W schools. But it's not true that any MCPS HS can offer the same rigorous classes and high achieving peer cohort. [/quote]
