[quote=Anonymous]I don’t understand what school your children are in where the not so advanced kids are slowing the AAP class down. My child is in a center school in 4th grade and the teachers aren’t slowing down for anyone. They are going at the scheduled pace. Math unit tests are every two weeks and there’s a brand new topic every two weeks. The kids who aren’t understanding the material don’t do well on tests and get a bad score. There’s no hand holding in AAP. I’m not sure I believe these people who are posting about how ‘watered down’ AAP is. It’s not. It’s a perfectly fine program for advanced kids who are focused on learning. If you feel your genius child deserves better it’s best to seek a private education. In an AAP class of 22 kids how many do you think are truly truly ‘gifted’. Probably 2 or 3? Maybe none. How do you expect to have such a small separate class? Even if there two or three AAP classes we are looking at most 8 kids! [/quote]
