[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.  [b]My DC with a 125 IQ is thriving in Level III with advanced math at the base school.[/b]  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]

My child moved to the center for 3rd grade, but her friend who stayed behind for level 3 met with the AART once a MONTH with a small group and they didn't start advanced math until 5th grade. Her entire third grade was wasted while they focused on SOL prep with the kids in the class who were behind.  Her friend and 5-6 other children transferred to the center for 4th grade after experience third grade gen ed.[/quote]
