[quote=Anonymous]One could argue there's no advantage to AAP either, since all kids end up in honors/AP classes by the time they hit middle school. Most would argue that there is still benefit, as it keeps kids engaged and sometimes challenged vs. letting them coast entirely. This is just a more extreme version of that. I don't think it's likely all 50% of AAP students identified need that extra, but I don't doubt that a percent will benefit. Having the course available isn't the issue, it's pushing kids into it automatically based on a data point without looking at the kid as a whole.[/quote]
