[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m really glad my freshman is taking APUSH. It’s the first class in MCPS that has made him work and taught him study skills and I’m glad he’s finally getting that. That said, while he’s a stem-oriented kid he really likes history (apush has contributed to that), likes to read, and has always been efficient about getting his work done. After a bumpy first test he’s been doing well. All that said, I don’t think we’ll push it for my second kid who is equally smart but slow and doesn’t like to read. Just doesn’t seem like a battle worth fighting/stress worth causing freshman year.[/quote]

2nd this.  It's been a fantastic class.  At first my kid was failing but got his grade way up.  The teacher has taught them study skills, test taking skills, note taking skills, how to use a text book and more.  I wanted to pull my kid out and the teacher said no.  I am so thankful for that teacher this year.  It's a hard class and a huge, but really good learning curve.  (assuming you get a good teacher)[/quote]
