[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Half the 3-6 graders are in AAP? You center school only has students from the base school? Our center school has students from 6 other schools.[/quote] Of course our center draws plenty of other students from other schools (five at last count). But about 2/3 of the second graders for whom this is their base school, wind up in AAP in 3rd grade. Why so incredulous? [b]It's one of the huge problem centers[/b], in that it's dominated by mainstream AAP kids.[/quote] There are several "huge problem centers" but they are not the majority.[/quote] Doesn't really matter if they're in the majority or not. They're problems and those of us with kids in those schools would like something done about it. As in, no more centers in those areas.[/quote] Wow. Your kid can't keep up academically, with some of his classmates (is e in the bottom half!!) and you think the solution is to create a school with less academic rigor and lowered expectations, where no one out performs your child academically? I guess if your child was tone deaf, band and strings should go? And no art, because snowflake can't draw? Guess what, your kid doesn't get to be the best at everything. W .[/quote] You make zero sense. [/quote] Don't feel bad. Not everyone can follow a 2-3 step logical argument. I'll simplify: why should FCPS dumb down a school? Just so your kids can feel smarter?[/quote] Heh. My child is in AAP. And someone else already pointed out the fallacy in your reasoning anyway.[/quote]
