[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not a troll, just a parent giving a bird’s eye view of 8th grade academics. Intensified classes aren’t the entire curriculum. Kids can choose fairly challenging languages and electives. It can all add up to a decent education in 7th and 8th grade in APS. But parents need to get involved in guiding kids to choose challenge that lines up with their interests and aptitude. Sit back and don’t pay attention to your detriment. [/quote] Are you the person who said your child is taking intensified World Geo and intensified Chinese? I don't have a problem with what you're saying above but you're also not providing accurate information to other posters. I agree Chinese is a very challenging language, particularly for a child who hasn't had any exposure in the home. The vast majority of kids taking Chinese and succeeding in Chinese in APS have home exposure and support.[/quote]
