[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Though being the longest continuous operating school within FCPS, Vienna ES has bright and inviting hallways/classrooms. It also has a red roof, which is interesting. [/quote] And it has no AAP program, which is the biggest plus of all.[/quote] :roll: The anti-AAP bashers have to hop into every thread....Worked great for our kid, no complaints, and [b]there was no "AAP versus general ed" chasm like some claim on this board. [/quote] [/b] Only a parent who had a kid in AAP would say this.[/quote] +100 Those parents will constantly deny there is any segregation or division. So predictable.[/quote] I am an AAP parent of 2 AAP kids and I kept my kids in the local level IV school in part because I heard about the division at nearest center school. I had one parent (who sent her DS to the center) give me snark and say my kids could never get a good education outside of the center school because they would not be among smart peers. That just solidified my decision to stay local. And then you meet these fools in (a center) MS and the AAP kids all attend the same AAP classes whether they went to the center or local level IV school. And bright kids who aren't in AAP take honors-which guess what? doesn't seem all that different (is there any difference?) than the AAP classes. AAP kids commingle with (gasp!) gen ed kids in electives. So some of us AAP parents recognize the division in ES. IMO, it gets better in MS. [/quote] I haven't met people like this at all no matter the school. In fact, some of the LLIV schools are much wealthier and a bit more elitest. No one cares that much in Vienna where you go to school private, public, AAP, gen ed. Eventually you all know each other through something.[/quote] You either have a kid in private school, a kid in AAP, or no school-aged child at all.[/quote]
