[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is not a new phenomenon. APS has been on a decline for a while. The pandemic has just shown a huge spotlight on it. Parents are now seeing the reality of an APS education. Lots are wisely abandoning ship. [/quote] Yes, we and others we know are seriously contemplating other areas regionally or nationally. We just are waiting for the green light from our offices. But, why spend exorbitant amounts of money to live somewhere and have your child receive no to a maybe subpar education? Makes no sense really. Live somewhere else more affordable and get a better return on your education investment. Win win. [/quote] Spot on. My kid has been in APS for 10 years, and I’ve always been under the impression it was good. Now I know better. With so many APS apologists around, it’s hard to make the case that the quality is not there. You get hit with all the BS from posters above about being a helicopter parents, it being a pandemic, it being Thursday. The excuse du jour. It’s NEVER APS’s fault. Always the fault of parents and kids. [/quote] That definitely came to light this year. The educational quality is just so average. Add to that they put in very little effort getting kids back in the classroom. They put out a mediocre (at best) product this year.[/quote]
