[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All students need to be challenged but students are at all sorts of ability levels The reason why there shouldn't be AAP for all is the same reason there shouldn't be AP for all. Most kids aren't ready for the material and they drag down the ones who are if they are in the classroom period. IQ sorry not sorry [/quote] IQ sorry not sorry = ? If you are saying that ability level is based on IQ, then set cut offs on appropriate scores and require clearly stated supporting materials if score is below cut off. Currently, there is no transparency for local school and parents. In any case, AAP syllabus is not so advanced that kids must need a high IQ - make it open enrollment so kids can try it out. The current process is a waste of time of school teachers. The top two public elementary schools in VA have gifted programs run locally by schools.[/quote]
