[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some of your complaints are ridiculous.  Go to private school if you want your kid’s school to cater to exactly what you want.[/quote]

No, you go to private school, where taxpayers asking for bang for their buck for their ed tax dollars won't annoy you for asking for standard public school offerings in this Metro area.[/quote]

People on here are complaining that freshman and sophomores can’t take upper level AP classes because they are filled by seniors and juniors. It is not standard for freshman to get to take a senior level AP class. I honestly don’t think you know what the typical high school offers especially one that has 600 kids. What more do you want? [/quote]  Depends on the subject. If a JR or Walls freshman is ready for AP math or a language, let them take it, support them on dual enrollment for appropriate challenge at a college or at least let them take the exam at the school if they want after self-study prep. We know bilingual families whose kids have taken AP language freshman or sophomore year in DCPS and scored 5s.[/quote]

Yeah okay Walls allows kids to take AP math freshman or sophomore years if they have the appropriate pre-requisite coursework.  They do a placement test for languages and many take APs freshman or sophomore years.  It seems people just want to complain. No your freshman won’t get into AP Psych.  It’s too popular with upper classmen.[/quote]
