I completely disagree.  I see a lot of parents on this board trying to justify the existence of AAP by telling themselves and anyone gullible enough to believe them that the AAP curriculum is "superior," that the peer group is "more motivated" (??), that [b]kids are more prepared in high school if they've been in AAP[/b], and that the strongest teachers tend to be AAP certified.  [i]None[/i] of this has been true in our experience.  [/quote]

My kids (2E) have absolutely been more/better prepared for high school thanks to AAP. Just our family's experience, though.[/quote]

YMMV, our AAP Center had no idea what to do with our 2E child.  [/quote]

We also had an excellent experience at the AAP Center with our 2E kids.[/quote]

I think the problem lies in the variances in schools within the county and the difference types of 2E.  I saw much better handling of 2E students if they had mild to moderate ADHD or HFA.  Not so much on the LD front (and especially on the severe to profound yslexia area- although that has hchanged in the past five years in a few schools) or the moderate to severe levels of ADHD or HFA.
