[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sad. When I went to FCPS, we read books, wrote papers, and knew that deadlines matter. For the most part, that was true for our kids as well. Don’t know why they’d relax standards other than to create an illusion of achievement for kids who are just dialing it in. It doesn’t serve anyone’s interests in the long run. [/quote] When I was a student with FCPS, I was a straight A student who took AP classes, and I did all of my homework on the bus right before school started. I even placed first at a HS science fair when I did the project the night before. I don’t think FCPS was any better in the 80s/90s.[/quote] Well I was also a student many years ago and no one I knew was like this then, even the top five students, so it wasn't the norm. It's also obvious that the AP classes have been watered down. [/quote]
