I'm the PP right above this post.  One of the reasons my child chose to remain in gen ed was that the classes at the base school each have about 22 kids/class, whereas the center has 30 kids in each AAP class, with many of those classes in trailers.  I also wouldn't be too sure about the superior instruction.  At least in gen ed, the kids in the highest reading group or the advanced math class are there because they're actually above grade level.  In AAP, many kids are not above grade level in either math or language arts, so they're still slowing the class down and consuming more of the teacher's time.  [/quote]

You don’t think AAP has reading groups and differentiated math??  I promise you the highest reading group in any AAP class has only kids who are above grade level. [/quote]
Well, obviously.  You're just not guaranteed much more of the teacher's time and attention in AAP vs. gen ed.  In both cases, the teacher will have to focus on lower achieving kids.  Also, there are generally many more kids in an AAP classroom than in a gen ed one, which further divides the teacher's attention.  [/quote]
