[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do people who want the program paired down, want these current AAP kids to be in general ed and get the general ed curriculum or do they want the general ed curriculum to change. I've been following this board for years and don't think I've ever seen a thread that proposes actual in depth concrete changes to general ed. What is wrong with general ed these days? What needs to be changed? Separate threads for elementary and middle school would be helpful. Until general ed changes are established, I don't see a lot of people successfully advocating to reduce the AAP program. Those families with kids who are on the border will fight for a larger pool of children because they want their children exposed to a curriculum at the level of AAP.[/quote]

I can't speak for anyone else's thoughts, but there's no reason the vast majority of the AAP kids can't be taught in the home schools, with adjustments to the Gen Ed curriculum.  Supplement the kids who are bright in math and language arts, and even science or social studies.  Think of it as an expansion and enhancement of the current in-school services.[/quote]
