[quote=Anonymous]I think the real difference, and it is truly unfortunate, is in how the teachers treat the kids. Kids in AAP and honors were given more respect and given more enjoyable work, while kids in gen ed seemed to be yelled at a lot, and given work often beneath them and then punished if they were bored. Due to the team structure, these could be the same teachers but due to the labels the kids are treated differently and understandably start to behave differently and think about themselves differently. Kids got in trouble in gen ed and sent to the principal for a small violation that an aap kid would not even be reprimanded for. This is based on what my honors and aap kids have said- I do not have a kid in gen ed but I have observed enough to notice this extremely unfair and negative pattern as well. [/quote]
