[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Having been through this for 3 kids - do your kid a favor and say nothing. The 3d graders who announce to the teacher and the other kids that "they are in AAP/the smart class" are[b] universally mocked by the staff and other parents [/b]and can be insufferable. Your child is very young, has very limited social filters, and does not understand what being in AAP means. In my personal experience, BTW, the kids who trumpeted their AAP acceptance at age 9 were not the strongest students in the program by 8th grade... It will come up eventually from some child, so wait until then to explain to your child that they have the same opportunity as all the other kids to do their best at school. [/quote] So you’re warning us that kids are surrounded by sh!tty adults would look down on/ universally mock an 8 year old? Jeez. [/quote]
