[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One DC in GenEd at a center felt inferior because she knew she wasn’t in the AAP. This lowered her self esteem throughout elementary school. [/quote]

She'll be happy in Middle School and High School knowing she wasn't part of the "weird" group. LOL.[/quote]

Good lord the parents are the absolute worst part of FCPS. Are you 13, pp? [/quote]

I don’t think what PP said is any worse than those posters implying that their precious kids need to be kept away from “those” kids in gen ed. We are at a center school. There are more gen ed classes than AAP classes this year probably because of Covid learning loss, or maybe just random cohort differences. There are plenty of bright, above average kids in gen ed who will do just fine. It really does seem like most of the more sporty kids are in gen ed at our school while AAP has the kids for whom school is “their thing” and all their extracurriculars are more academic. That’s fine. All the kids are where they need to be. We’re at a high SES school so people don’t need to try to get in to AAP to escape some supposedly bad environment. I sense that some of the desperation around AAP comes from people at schools with greater SES diversity. [/quote]
