[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, the non-AAP kids are put down. The kids make hurtful comments. It’s a terrible system. It’s mainly just an acceleration of math by one year. We see the other topics are the same. And, the acceleration of math is just a plodding forward at a faster rate; it is not a gifted, deeper understanding of math. So, much drama over a one year push-ahead in one subject. It keeps the tutoring companies in business in the area. Lots of Mathnasium, RSM, etc. type places all over the area. [/quote] Are you bitter because your child was not admitted into AAP? Your vitriol makes no sense and your information about the program is inaccurate. I have two kids. One was in AAP and the other one wasn’t. Both kids got the education they needed. My AAP kid had friends in both the AAP and non-AAP classes. My non-AAP kid’s best friend through eighth grade was an AAP student she met in fourth grade at school. My AAP kid never felt she was better than her sister. My non-AAP kid never said she felt less than at school. Yeah, there are some jerk kids and jerk parents, but your blanket characterization of AAP is wrong.[/quote] Very well-said. Agree on all points. [/quote]
