[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is the center really that much more academically rigorous? I recognize that this probably varies by school so what can we look for to help make these choices? [/quote] For some schools, probably not. In our case, absolutely. Honestly, all the discussion here led to low expectations, and I've been very pleasantly surprised. Our base school still doesn't have a local program, so our choice was easy, but I don't think a cluster model there would be comparable to the dedicated classrooms at the center. I would look for the number of AAP classes at each school. I would look for dedicated classroom vs cluster model. I would look for the certifications and tenure of the AAP teachers at each school. And then just go to the orientations and listen to what they have to say about their programs.[/quote]
