[quote=Anonymous]OP, FCPS AAP is good for moderately gifted, high achieving kids, not as much for profoundly gifted kids. It’s more of an accelerated curriculum than a true gifted program like you had growing up. It’s also fairly weak in language arts. That said, one boy in my daughter’s 5th grade class went to the middle school for math in 3rd and 4th grades and now does high school math online, so they can accommodate kids who are especially gifted in one subject. If you do move for AAP, make sure to choose a less crowded center. Ours (Mosby Woods) is overcrowded with 28-30 kids per class. By contrast, a colleague’s kid in Burke has 22 kids in his AAP class (I forget which center).[/quote]
