[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In one it did. In another it did not. Mcps pushes children who are not ready to take AP classes to do so in the name of equity. It is detrimental to the children on many levels including tanking GPAs and creating low personal expectations for the students.[/quote] Who exactly at MCPS is pushing your kid to do this? Is there some reason your child can't decline when its not in their interests?[/quote] Depends on the school. In some MCPS schools, there are not enough students in each demographic taking AP classes to please the higher ups in central office. In those schools, there is a push to put more kids in AP classes. This is particularly true in EOS (Equal Opportunity Schools). That was another initiative purchased by MCPS, I think when Dr Smith was superintendent [/quote]
