[quote=Anonymous]The biggest difference is the accelerated math program. However, in FCPS, all students must have access to advanced math. DS was GE in a center school but was advanced in math so he pushed into the AAP class for math. GE students can asked to be tested. If they are strong in math they can ask the school to provide access to advanced math. In DS’s school, they tested all the kids in math and leveled them into classes by the results. DS was in the second highest group (out of seven). He was receiving higher level math than most of the kids in the full time AAP class. As far as overall results, smart motivated students will do well regardless of AAP. DS was accepted to multiple top 10 engineering programs for college. The same or better than the students who were in the full time AAP classes. I can’t believe parents get so worked up about the AAP classes. [/quote]
