[quote=Anonymous]Oh my god.  You all are so "entitled" you can not see "past your nose".  I understand it is "all about you" and "your children" but, contrary to your belief, my argument is for all children not just "mine".

My question to this "great" teacher is, [u]Is a smart, high achiever, all around good (kind to others, no bad behavior, participates, is attentive), never has to "study", totally frustrated with the process of teachers "repeating" the same information "over and over"(so others in class can "get it"), "straight A" student, not worthy of having "advanced academics"?[/u]

Why would a miss behaved, refusal to do work, straight A student be given "advanced academics" over a truly good "academically advanced - straight A" student?

I totally get that a few children need a more rigorous academic curriculum. The issue here is not the "giving" of what a child needs but the "giving" of "advanced academics" to a select few because they can not function in the general classroom.  [b]The label of "advanced academics" and the "giving" of a better education, in a "full immersion" program is absolutely wrong if the same is not given to the "good", "advanced academic student".[/b]  Why should they get total immersion when a strait A, good student, could benefit as well?

Possibly the answer is a FCPS "alternative learning center" school for these children.  Is this FCPS's way of leveling the "school" achievement scores?  Whatever the reason it is truly flawed and really a "joke of a program".[/quote]
