[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is a difference in the honors classes with kids who came from GenEd in most cases. The former AAP kids complain that they are slowing down the class pace[/quote]Definitely not at our HS. They weed out the kids who can not keep up with the pace or the grades(both former AAP and general kids) within the first few weeks of school. Basically if you have a C average after a few weeks(and a lot do) teachers and counselors send emails to parents with information regarding dropping down a level. or what can be done to help get the student back on track. There is absolutely nothing wrong with dropping down to a regular class. You want your kid to grasp concepts and have confidence while learning. They can then increase rigor the next year.[/quote] OPs kid is getting As and A- but she has to work for them. Without effort she would get a B. At least that is what OP said in her first post. OPs kid wants an A without having to work for it, which she can do in the gen ed class but not the Honors class. [/quote]
