[quote=Anonymous]Elementary and Middle AAP shouldn't be a "sense of pride" as it exist today it is an embarrassment!  Self selected offerings of AP/IB in middle and high school and TJ should be and are a sense of pride.  Having ALL of our elementary and middle schools offer ALL children an equal chance to do their very best would be a sense of pride.

A subjective, hand picked, few children getting a better education than the rest is a "sense of shame".  Not offering a program to benefit ALL children is a failure!

Yes truly advanced children should have their needs met in their base schools along with all the other advanced children in Fairfax County.  But giving a select group of children a better education by allowing them into a "not cost effective" selective program is discriminatory and quite frankly a waste of tax dollars.  It is an unnecessary expense, and, a great place to start cutting unnecessary spending.

Fortunately citizens of Fairfax are finally starting to recognize the AAP elementary and middle years program is not working and are speaking up.  [/quote]
