[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The thing that stands out about this thread is just how much AAP is a farce and should be dismantled because the whole thing is gamed.

If half the "gifted" kids an AAP class can't pass the basic, statewide math SOL, that's a sign that maybe they are not gifted.

Could be true, but the thing is the 5th graders are taking the 6th grade math. They had half a year of in person in 3rd and maybe a quarter of in person in 4th grade while they were learning 1.5 times the curriculum. So it was difficult to make all that up this year. The 5th grade math AAP teachers had to “review” things that the kids didn’t know because of covid.

I mean think what you want, but it definitely played a role.  I’m not a super big fan of AAP, but this isn’t a good reason to dismantle it.  THere are much better reasons if you are trying to start getting rid of the program.  This one is easily explained.[/quote]

The kids did not miss half a year of third grade. School let out in March 2020. Most schools had 1-2 units left but everything else was taught. [/quote]

They missed 1/3rd of the year. My aap 3rd grader's cladd was still in 3rd grade math.
Their school did not teach the rest of the year.[/quote]
