[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, that's not the case. In most LLIV schools, the LLIV classes are filled out with pupil-placed students to even out the class sizes across grades. Parents would be livid if the AAP class was smaller than the other classes. I would guess that Centers are different because AAP and GenEd/PBL are essentially treated as two different programs within the same school, so they probably try to ensure all AAP classes are the same size and all GenEd/PBL classes are the same size.[/quote] Last year at my school, the AAP class was 16. Gen ed was 27. But there just weren’t more kids who could be reasonably placed in AAP. The center schools really do muck things up by pulling so many students away with parents thinking the centers are superior. Funny though that I’ve met several AAP teachers who have taught at the center and at the local and they find the quality of education and expectations of students to be much higher at the local level IV schools.[/quote]
