[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What happens if you join in later years? Is it a big jump to merge into classes with peers who have already been in LIV since 3rd/4th grade? [/quote] In our case (LLIV), kid was in LIII and had already been in combined classes with these kids, so really no change. It was a formality.[/quote] My child entered in 5th. He knew a few people in there, but his best friends were not in AAP. I was a little worried about him initially, but he made friends very quickly and still hangs with his old friends (we are at a Center school.) He sees his old buddies over recess and now he has expanded his friend group with a bunch of AAP kids. If your child is social enough, they will be fine. [/quote] I've taught AAP for years, there are always 5 or so new kids every year. Either they are newly admitted from GenED, transferred from another FCPS school (move), or moved from another state and were in a gifted program.[/quote]
