Parent of an elementary school student? My kid goes to a high school where the choices are on-level classes (which are remedial) or AP. Early on he decided not to take on-level classes in anything that actually interested him, because there is so little content covered that he wouldn't learn anything. Only two AP classes stressed him out, both not in his areas of expertise. He got the best education he could at our local school, and he's going to a great college (but not one that gives DCUM folks heart palpitations) and will be as well-prepared as he can be. [/quote]

When debating if DS should add AP English to his 11th grade schedule I looked at the class size report to see how many kids take that vs regular English 11. 2/3 of the current 11th grade is in AP so that tells me it's the standard. We did encourage him to not take an AP science that year and to slow down on math (Calc AB instead of BC)[/quote]
