[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Best to just be at a center school as neighborhood school. Ours does Social studies and science all classes at Level IV. Same material/tests/quizzes/enhancements in both HE and AAP. Language Arts incorporates Level IV material but not everything into GE as well. Major difference is Math. But even with that some of my kids friends who are not “in” AAP are in my kids AAP math class. Center School. [/quote] Well it doesn’t really matter now with ne LA curriculum since everyone is getting the same program. [/quote] Same program does not equal the same pace and depth of delivery. Non-AAP parents really want to believe it's all the same. But it's not.[/quote] All kids will be getting the basal in LA. AAP kids will be doing the same grade level standards as others. They might have some extensions but not the way it has been in the past. I guess my point is they really won’t be getting accelerated or advanced reading compared to their gen ed classmates. Furthermore, avid readers will probably find the new basal boring. [/quote] I'm so disappointed by this change. My new AAP kid has been thrilled at the idea of actual work, and I fear this will now be marginally better, at best. I'm crossing my fingers out center teachers just continue to meet the kids where they actually are 🤞[/quote] There will be work but it won’t be the same as the LA programs for AAP in the past. I just wish AAP was able to use grade level above of the basal but the county is not doing it. I am concerned about the program since MCPS used it and hated it so they are switching this year.
