[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]why are public school parents so freaked out by the decision by a handful of private schools to walk way from the APs? What scares them so much.[/quote]

i think they are more bemused by private schools styling themselves as beyond the APs.[/quote]

I'm not sure they are bemused.  It seems to go beyond that based on this thread.  They seem pretty worked up to me.[/quote]

Well, you it would be hard to poll private school parents at the schools dropping APs, but it seems to me, mostly at our school folks are supportive. I have not run into anyone who feels strongly against the change. Lots of people think it was long overdue.  [/quote]

Parent at Big 3.  I am against the change.  I think it is a private school pretension and a marketing ploy.  I am very familiar with AP course requirements and virtually all subjects allow the teacher to design the course in a major way.  Creativity and deep learning is allowed; the only thing the teachers may not like is time pressure.  [/quote]
