[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the Haycock solution is to take the AAP Center out of the school. That way the AAP teachers can relocate to an AAP Center at another school, and then the remaining general ed kids will still access elements of the AAP curriculum. The gifted kids will have a strong cohort at a newly located AAP Center with the experienced AAP Center teachers. It really is the best for everyone.[/quote]

Um, except that not only does Haycock want the center, but it's one of the most successful centers in the county.  That's why they have this overcrowding problem... They're a victim of their own success, as somebody at the School Board meeting said last night.  Somebody even said to the principal last night that they'd be approaching her after this mess is all over to talk about "best practices" at AAP Centers.  No one wants to move the AAP Center out of Haycock.[/quote]

I wouldn't be so sure.  The Gen Ed parents whine endlessly about the center.  What makes you think they want to keep it?[/quote]

I think for you to complain about whining is irony-ridden.  The GenEd parents are not opposed to an AAP center at Haycock.  They want relief from overcrowding, and the best solution under the current constraints to achieve this goal is that proposed by Janie Strauss, who presented the reasons for her amendment calmly and logically, and with the clear support of both the Haycock and Lemon Road principals.

Schultz is kind of a one-trick pony on the Board.  She likes to see herself as a maverick, like Tina Hone, but she just comes across as totally dense and self-absorbed.  [/quote]
