I dont know where you are getting your data from but none of what you wrote applies to my DC's AAP classes so far. The speed at which they move through lessons and the complexity of the material on top of speed, there is just no way a general education kid is keeping up with that. Sorry, dont know where your kid goes but that isnt flying at my kid's center. I have no idea how they deal with the AAP kids who cant keep up but that sure doesn't slow down my kid's class.[/quote]

Either your DC attends an excellent center, or you're very easily impressed.  My kids' center seemed like gen ed with more projects.  I can't imagine any above average and motivated kid struggling to keep up.  Most of the AAP kids don't seem amazing and get pretty meh results in things like word masters or CML.  [/quote]

The center is excellent. Their experience was not anything like what was done for the general education kids. We decided against sending DC to language immersion to do AAP and it was worth it. DC would've been bored to tears without this challenge.

I find it weird that people want to generalize what should be best to overhaul a system without having any data about the students. Most of the time I think these posters are people whose children didn't make it into AAP and are salty.[/quote]

Which center is this? [/quote]
