[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some public schools will assume the cost of the AP exams - for example, Fairfax County will pay for up to 6 AP exams, after that, it's up to the student or parents. Private schools do not pay for the exams - always up to the parents. I interviewed to teach at Fusion - but did not get the job. I was surprised until a friend of mine suggested that I was "overqualified" as I talked about teaching during the interview and not how to buddy-buddy with students. Oddly, one teacher talked to me about how "Fusion is known for taking the bad kids..." when prior to that comment I never thought that. They are hugely about money, and teachers do not have to have any particular qualifications. The DMV has an incredible range of private schools for kids who learn differently - whether due to anxiety, learning challenges, ASD, etc. For the price - upwards of $70K a year, I think there are better alternatives. [/quote] My kid learned more (according to him) at Fusion than he did at his other fancy private school. The teachers at Fusion were smart, caring, engaged and good at teaching, and my kid was well prepared for college. [/quote]
