[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes and it's stupid and dare I say inequitable? I am confident my child would have gotten into AAP at our old school (lower average income school with a good amount of native Spanish-speakers), but we moved to a wealthier area and my child was rejected (and rejected on appeal) last year despite 130+ on the NNAT and COGAT, 99th percentile scores in iReady math, and good grades. We didn't bother this year. It appears that the only difference nowadays is advanced math anyway, and that's really not a big deal to us.[/quote] Given the watered down nature of AAP now and your experience in two schools with different demographics, do you find the school in the wealthier area offers your child an elevated curriculum as is often asserted? It seems like you might be in a position to evaluate this hypothesis. If your child is in advanced math in the current (wealthier) school, do you supplement in other areas? Just curious. [/quote]
