Didn't take long for one of DCUM's usual AAP-haters to jump in.

AAP is one thing that helps make FCPS attractive to many families. Someone argued above that losing sports would make the area less attractive but in the end, education is supposedly why FCPS exists, and academic programs should take precedence over sports. Every time.

Go on, PP, rant about how AAP and AP and IB and everything that challenges kids (sometimes by letting them go to a school other than their local one) should be axed. So we can keep sports, right? [/quote]

Not the PP, and I would be fine with cutting sports or charging fees to play.  However, if the day ever comes when [b]ALL[/b] kids are able to choose a school other than their local one, and [b]not just AAP kids[/b], then I will have no problem with AAP.  Until then, it's a program that promotes inequity and should not be supported by a PUBLIC school system.  [/quote]
