[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You re teaching your kids to do better on tests, not learning more knowledge.  This is the problem.  [b]People like you are why AAP is struggling:[/b]  Instead of focusing on learning, which is the goal, you are focusing on the scores of tests.

In my family, we "prep" by taking walks talking about how the water currents change the land forms; how water flows down hill, how we can predict thing using physics and math.  We put very little effort on specific tests.

Your hyper-prepped kid my score better on the CogAT -- I don't give a f*** how my kid does on that.  But, my kid understands what she is doing.  Oh, she is an A student in Middle school at an AAP center. [/quote]

What??? AAP is flourishing. It is highly sought after, the path to TJ, a source of great pride for the county.  I say bullshit to anyone misguided enough to think AAP is "struggling."  Utter bullshit.[/quote]

Oh dear.  Looks like another one has been drinking the Kool-Aid.  AAP is not flourishing.  It has become the butt of way too many jokes for anyone to consider it "flourishing."  Sorry.[/quote]
