[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]After having a child go through AAP, (now in 8th grade), there is no amount of money I would have hypothetically paid to get this child into AAP if we were to do it over.  I would have kept him in General Ed. where his siblings are [b]learning exactly the same thing[/b] and are far lessed stressed out about it.

Those who compare AAP to a private school are deluding themselves.  [/quote]

It would have cost zero dollars to move back to Gen Ed at the earliest opportunity.  What made you stay?[/quote]

Why was he stressed then?[/quote]

Because of the amount of homework, busy work, and projects that were assigned.  Our other kids don't have to deal with that nonsense and are learning the same things in a much more relaxed and healthy atmosphere.[/quote]

This is not universal. Our DC, 6th grade, has significantly less homework at her Center-- and almost nothing I would consider busy work. To the point that I asked her why she didn't have more work outside class. She says that they do most projects in class, and that they get a lot more work done during her AAP class than GE. It also looks like her math worksheets, etc are shorter. Love it![/quote]

Our child has been busy every night with loads of homework.  Not loving it.[/quote]

Sounds like he doesn't belong in AAP.  Why not move him to Gen Ed?  Don't keep torturing him.[/quote]
