[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are people posting about AAP kids coming back to general ed interested in the general ed curriculum being changed or just the AAP kids getting a lower curriculum and being an influence to the general ed kids? I think these people should really decide what they're really pushing for since it doesn't seem like AAP costs will get much lighter with any change.[/quote] [b]I'm a little confused by what you're asking here, but it seems that PPs are saying if AAP [b]drastically[/b] cut the number of kids who qualify, limiting them to only the highly gifted, then costs for the program would also be cut. In addition, the Gen Ed classes would not continue to be depleted of avg/above avg. students who don't need a special, segregated environment. So it would be a win-win for both the Gen Ed population and the "highly gifted" population[/b].[/quote] Other than busing, AAP students do not cost much more than what the district spends on gen ed classes. The would still be educating these students whether or not they are at a base school or center. Cut AAP busing.[/quote]
