[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How likely is it for a kid in FCPS general ed (elementary) to do well in middle school honors classes and high school honors/AP classes? Is the only path to being a strong candidate for elite colleges to get into AAP in elementary/middle? Assuming no hooks or URM status[/quote] Irrespective of whether a kid gets into AAP or not, the duty of their parents doesn't change. Got to read with the kids, help them, make sure they do homework, feed them well, do the usual parenting duties to best assist the child development. The learnings at home, outdoors are as important and in many cases, more important than classes at school. [/quote] We do all this and DC is in AAP, loves the peer environment. We'll worry about colleges when it's time to apply in HS. Not sure what OP is trying to communicate 🤔 [/quote]
