[quote=Anonymous]I’m the poster who kept DD out of the AAP Center. I know that my daughter is smart, but brilliant or exceptional - no. She is organized, kind, mature for her age, a hard worker and people-pleaser. Does that make her “gifted”? I don’t think so. After talking to DD and her teachers, I am confident that she will be properly challenged at her base school. I support my decision not to send her to the center because she has an older sibling who attended for a while. I was not impressed with the high level of stress and competition among the students, or the attitude fostered by the school that AAP students were treated as “special”. Personally, I thought DD would burn out. She is happy, well-adjusted, and excelling at her base school and I feel I made the right decision for her. Each family is entitled to their own opinion.[/quote]
