[quote=Anonymous][quote=It's hard to go from being at the top the be surrounded by super stars.The teachers can be intense. The kids can be intense. [/quote] This was true for my DS. Also, the AAP program had a ton of "small group" work that was just not good for him. He does much better when adults are clearly in charge of the lesson. Take a room full of kids who are all used to being the smartest at their base schools, add a fast-paced and highly competitive environment where the kids are all pushing to be "top dog", and it's very hard for many 3rd graders to handle - not just those with disabilities. The teachers often fuel the rivalry, too. It also seems like AAP programs vary greatly in quality county-wide. I've heard that some are great with 2e kids and some are terrible. [/quote]
