[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reading everything here with interest. My DC has also gotten into CAP but from a non-magnet middle school. PP said that their DD has 2 hours of homework/night. Do others find something similar? Just weighing the extra period with my DC's ADHD and commute time and the stamina to handle a huge homework load daily. Thanks. [/quote]

Yeah, I would love to know what's the homework differential between CAP and Whitman (if honors class, etc.).  For example, if CAP is 2 hours of homework every night, what would it be like at Whitman, for example?[/quote]
Homework load is so kid-dependent. One of my kids handled 5 APs (with As and 5s) both Jr and Sr years and never spent much time on homework. Other had much less rigorous classes but took much more time to do less homework. [/quote]

Don't expect a light HW load at Whitman in all honors/AP classes. Also, the same sort of group of quirky kids exists at every school, you just have to find them.[/quote]
Probably, at a big school, but they don't always find each other. A lot of kids who find their quirky group at Eastern or CAP did not really find their group at their previous schools. It's really a special group of kids. [/quote]
