No grueling homework, still time for sports every night, a quick family dinner at the table and playtime. We have an only and two full time parents, which helps.

It's not.  Which is why there are so many kids in it and why so many more kids would be able to do it if it wasn't a "closed" program.[/quote]

It is not a closed program. There are schools in parts of the county where the AAP curriculum is used in all classes.[/quote]

But is it used in all schools, for all kids?  No.[/quote]

And FCPS is a big place where schools serve different populations. It may be that local ES principals have too much say on this sue. But what works in Vienna, McLean, Chantilly may not be appropriate in a low SES ES with a high ESOL population. [/quote]
