[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As parent of a child who's been through FCPS and now college freshman in a top VA state university and another in second grade now (don't ask), I can honestly say AAP does not matter - its the kid. First one got into AAP and we decided to stay at the local school and did very well. We know first ones friends who went to AAP did not do that well. Now with our second, we are might be facing the same dilemma and might go through the AAP system. Don't know. [b]But I can honestly tell you that it depends on your child and how you raise them. If they are smarter kids, they will thrive wherever they go as long as you as a parent don't throttle them[/b].[/quote] +1000 You're so right. I have an almost identical situation except that my college freshman in a top VA state university was not in AAP in elementary school. When middle and high school rolled around, he took all the Honors and AP classes he wanted to and excelled. AAP really has no bearing on life after elementary school. [/quote]
