[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Which schools have such poor gen ed programs?  I have experience with 3 different schools in the central FCPS area, and all had wonderful gen ed programs with plenty of differentiation for advanced learners.  My DC with a 125 IQ is thriving in Level III with advanced math at the base school.  It's hard to imagine that so many above average kids need to claw their way into AAP to get an appropriate education.  If anything, I've seen entirely too little difference between AAP and the advanced groupings at the base school.

So, name some schools with dismal gen ed.  Or admit that you're just assuming that the gen ed is bad.  [/quote]

Which schools were these? Everything in FCPS is principal-dependent. We moved from London Towne after a dismal K and 1st grade experience. Most people only have experience with their zoned school-people don't move around that often. London Towne was less than 50% low-income kids but the entire focus was on bringing up low achievers. There was very little enrichment IMO. I can only imagine how basic the education is at the schools with 60%, 70%, 80% FARMs.[/quote]
