[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Please don't act like this is a competition[/b] your child "won"  It starts the attitudes that are prevalent at some school between "us and them".   [/quote]

But it is a competition.  Whether it should be or not is another discussion. For anything where there are limited spots, there is a competition.  Portfolios are being compared with other portfolios in the pool especially for those with lower scores.  I will be excited if my child gets in.  I will be excited if my child makes the basketball team, cheerleading squad or what ever activity they choose to become involved.  However, I will not be devastated if my child does not get into AAP.  They will ultimately be successfully with proper motivation and guidance regardless of where they go to school.  I am and will always be excited when my child has new opportunities.  What parent wouldnt?[/quote]

Sorry.  There are not limited spots in AAP.  It is for anyone who qualifies and truly needs it.  Therefore, should not be seen as a competition.  [/quote]
Not all competitions are against others.  Would "challenge" be more agreeable to you?  Or is it better to just pretend that academic effort has no role at all?  [/quote]
