[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The regional model states that WJ is getting a Humanities magnet, but WJ just announced to incoming freshmen families that the APEX program is ending with current 9th graders. That was the humanities magnet. We were told that it was being replaced with AP Capstone, but that is already offered at WJ and at most MCPS high schools. It is just a diploma marking for kids who take two classes. AP Research and AP Seminar and who take four other AP classes. APEX has special accelerated classes in addition to requiring participants to take at least nine AP courses and to choose a particular academic focus pathway. I don’t see where WJ is actually getting anything. [/quote] Relax. APEX isn't anything special. Yes you take cohorted English 9 and 10, which is an advantage but anyone can take 9 or any number of APs and choose any track, APEX or not. The humanities magnet is not APEX.[/quote]
