[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is now four posts in a row of ridiculous agreement against an obvious straw man notion [b]no one has espoused.[/b]  It's like watching three-year-olds watch Blue's Clues.    [/quote]

Is the "straw man" notion you're referring to the one in which multiple posters have said that to be successful in high school honors and AP classes, students must take elementary and middle school AAP and/or honors classes?  Because several posters have claimed just that, and then been completely refuted by those of us [b]who actually have kids in high school[/b].  Oh, and also the ludicrous claim that high school honors/AP/IB classes are full of only prior AAP kids - and no prior Gen Ed kids.  It's kind of funny that you would say "no one has espoused" that, when the exact opposite is true.  So what exactly is your straw man?

Hmm, I did find one poster suggesting that "I'm not sure how a kids who doesn't take honors or is in aap will be successful in, say, honors English."  Seems pretty harmless.  Is that what you meant by multiple posters insisting this or insisting that?  The thing is, AAP haters such as yourself care waay more about these topics than anyone else here.  Something I've yet to figure out.  So a catty phrase answering another somehow is rephrased, rebutted, +10,000-ed, and tossed around by the same group of goblins until it's snowballed and shaped into some giant controversy regarded as The Official Position of all who don't hate AAP as much as you do.  It's hilarious to witness how one troll post can send the y'all into apoplectic spasms that span pages.     [/quote]
